Transferring Products from a Non-Working Refrigerator

Question

Hello!

On Shabbat, there was a power outage during the day, and I transferred dairy products to the neighbors' refrigerator so they wouldn't spoil. Was it permissible for me to also transfer frozen raw chicken? Is it permissible regarding the dairy products?

Answer

Hello

Raw chicken is considered muktzeh. 

Dairy products may be transferred to prevent spoilage.
