A springing heifer is a heifer who is within a few weeks of delivering her first calf.
It's the name for a heifer that has had her first calf and is currently raising her first calf. It's also a name for a heifer that came from a heifer or cow that was that heifer or cow's first calf.
Like this:"The farmer had a prized heifer in the cattle shed.""The heifer was bred by the herd bull yesterday.""The cow gave birth to a heifer calf!""Those blasted heifers got out again!!"
That all depends on the age of the heifer. The older the heifer, the heavier she'll be.
