It refers to youth.
Since chickens naturally hatch in the spring (when they are not forced into unnatural cycles by factory farming), "he's no spring chicken" means a person is not young any more.

It is simply referring to youth.
For example:
"Emily can't do the things she used to do because she's not a spring chicken anymore".
