I don't think it has anything to do with bats. Someone once told me that 'batshit' (meaning 'crazy') originated on it's own in the US military during the Korean War and then, after picking it up while serving in the Air Force (but not in Korea), Hunter S. Thompson began using it coupled with 'crazy' whilst writing for Rolling Stone in the 70s. Don't know if any of that is true or not but it seems legit.
