well, it is the chicken that has just grown from being a chick to a full grown chicken...means young and full of life Young and tender. Hatched in the spring. Eaten as soon as it's large enough.

It's like a young chicken I guess. Older people say that about young people.

Ummm, is this a term you heard or something you saw on a menu?

Generally, this term is used to indicate someone in prime health or at least young. For example, "She's no spring chicken" means she is not in such great shape anymore or she's old. Mostly, it refers to your body. If you have a great body, you can still be called a spring chicken. I've never heard it used in reference to a male.

In the spring, chickens are still young and growing and, thus, in good shape, look good, etc.
