Double roasted chicken.
The word they're probably going for is pullet, a hen that hasn't yet started laying eggs.
it's called a poussin over here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poussin_(chicken)
Hey we called it that first !
Ah neat, my guess was going to be "virgin roasted chicken" which could possibly refer to the oil or herbs used to baste or braise the chicken.
Personally I think they're referring to a Capon. A rooster who had its testicles removed before "puberty". This is done to make dual purpose birds (egg and meat) more palatable for meat purposes.
