I don't believe that if you have ever bought a Tyson or Foster Farms

Those would have to labeled as such.

I've
bought them in the supermarket that still had ice between the thigh
and carcass.

USDA regulations require that chickens labeled "fresh" have to never
been below 26F internal temperature. That means that a slight amount of
exterior freezing is possible.
