Chapman's antshrike's are insectivorous and their diet consists of caterpillars (larval Lepidoptera) and berries from the Meliaceae tree.
Forages from low near the ground up to 15 m above the ground inside forest. Forages in typical antshrike fashion: moves through foliage with a series of short hops, pausing between moves to scan surrounding vegetation for prey. Gleans prey from leaves, stems, vines and branches. One pair repeatedly probed small epiphytic bromeliads.
The Chapman's antshrike has a very restricted geographic distribution. Nonetheless, its conservation status is rated by BirdLife International as Least Concern. On the other hand, considered its conservation priority to be High.
