Poussin, which is also known as Spring Chicken, Coquelet and Cornish Game Hen, are young chickens which have been bred for eating and their extra flavour and tenderness; as such are sold as a whole young bird—typically enough for one adult meal or two children's meals.

Although very small, these birds still require cooking for 45-50 minutes at 190 °C (375 °F) — almost the same as for a smaller adult bird.
