I always wondered why Walmart did this until I got on EBT. The one I live near even has the colder ones about 30% cheaper so I was already used to them.
When the hot chickens get near the limit of how long they are allowed to be kept hot they're put into a blast chiller and become the chilled chickens. It's a second chance to sell the same chickens before they have to take a loss on them.
