Cluck is one of the many euphemisms in use, to describe going cold turkey ,a sudden stoppage of the addictive drug heroin and other opiates and opioids (e.g morhine, methadone, codiene, Fentanyl, opium and many more, marketed pain killers)
The term, cluck derivates from the term cold turkey, owing to the fact that when withdrawing from these drugs, one of the many withdrawal symptoms include goosebumps, like those on a plucked turkey. ** In the song 'Cold Turkey' by John Lennon, there is a lyric; "...Goose Pimple Bones" **
Too be fussy, the word should really be gobble as that's the sound turkeys make, but, as you may, or may not, know; gobble has taken on a different meaning..
There are many, many euphemisms for withdrawing from heroin/opiates etc., but others relevent to turkey/cluck are: to roast or roasting, clucking, spitting feathers and being oven ready!
That's where cluck comes from! Not crack!, although clucking has become a generic term for withdrawing from any addictive substace - as cold turkey has also done. But (as explained above) they originate from opoid withdrawal symptoms.

I had used up my bag of heroin and had no other means of keeping the turkey at bay. I knew that I was in for a big cluck, starting in a few hours time. By the mornig, I'll be clucking so bad I'll be spitting feathers.

Clucking is ze combination of course of climbing and fucking but together they become something unique; they combine so perfectly that you move the experience to another level.

The act of picking up small objects out of the carpet (much like a chicken in a pen) trying to find that one little rock that you dropped while you were loading the pipe.
Usually associated with the use of crack-cocaine, it can also happen to those who use other amphedamines.

When the last of her dope was gone, Lisa was fiending for more so much that she was clucking on the carpet.
