You don't need to age the chicken at all. Whenever I kill a chicken I simply eat it within the next week or freeze it immediately for future use.
no that way there fresh when you cook and eat them
A frozen chicken is called exactly that; a frozen chicken. Freezing a fresh chicken preserves it for several months so that it can be eaten at a later date.
Chicken eggs do freeze in the shell. Freezing will cause the egg to expand and crack open. Frozen eggs in the shell change consistency and will not cook, taste or have the same texture as a fresh egg. Special preparation before freezing will render the eggs useable when they need to be frozen.

Are chickens injected with chicken broth? That depends on whether the chicken is fresh or packaged, and how it was processed by the producer. Packaged chicken in the U.S. should be marked on the label if it has added broth or water.
Bacteria is in the air and on the chicken's skin. When the chicken is alive, it produces substances that keeps the bacteria under control. When the chicken dies or is killed, nothing keeps the bacteria from multiplying. As a result, when chicken are killed and the feathers are removed, they are refrigerated or fro zed. Refrigeration slows the growth of bacteria. Freezing stops the growth of bacteria. Before refrigeration, people skinned the chickens they killed the pervious day before they cooked them.
This is because of the salt in the water

Raw chicken should only be kept refrigerated for two days. Chicken carries bacteria like salmonella which can be fatal for those with compromised immune systems.
