Fresh chicken hearts should be used within 1-2 days of purchase. Store them in the coldest part of your refrigerator, ideally in a sealed container or wrapped tightly in plastic wrap to prevent cross-contamination. If you are not planning to use them within that time, freeze them. To freeze, spread them out on a baking sheet to prevent clumping, then transfer them to a freezer bag or airtight container once frozen solid. Frozen chicken hearts can last for several months.
