How long can you keep a fresh chicken in the freezer before it spoils?


How interesting! You can keep a fresh chicken in the freezer for up to twelve months before it spoils (please see our helpful info on storing, defrosting and cooking frozen food safely). But it also depends on the temperature of your freezer and your ability keep your freezer temperature constant. The packaging also affects how long the chicken lasts so do make sure that the packaging is air tight so it will last longer. If it helps, please visit our page on how to safely defrost frozen chicken. I hope all this helps answer you queery on frozen food.
