How does fresh chicken become unfresh?

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.
