If you accept 'fawn' as an animal, 'foal' should be ok too.

Wiccan was the first word I tried, too, but it's a proper noun, or an adjective derived from one.

According to the IPA renderings on Wiktionary, 'chicken' does not rhyme with any of those words in British or American English. 'Chicken' ends in /ɪn/ whereas the others end in /ən/.
