If "#chk0" is your container. You will need to use 

$("#chk0 :checkbox[value = 'Chicken']").parent().remove();

Note the space between the id and the :checkbox

Otherwise you will look for a checkbox with id ="chk0" instead of the checkbox inside of your container.

But if the #chk0 is the id for the input it will work fine..

Fiddle
