@JoNorvelleWalker I don't know... I'd have to check it out...  my local supermarket (Fairway) carries Bell and Evans, but they're a lot more expensive than the store brand or Murray's... 

You may try just plain freezing the chickens without bagging.

Chicken skins are fatty and protects moisture from evaporating. If you stitch the openings tight that may protect the interior for freezer burn.

On the one hand, I was hoping that was going to end with an awesome dip in liquid nitrogen or something.  On the other hand, now I know why the bags always leak when they are thawing in the fridge.
