Assuming perfect insulation it shouldn't take any energy to maintain the temperature of a closed fridge/freezer irrespective of the amount of food in there.
With less than perfect insulation and normal usage (opening the door!), then you're after minimising losses.
In that situation, a full freezer would be more efficient than an empty one since frozen chickens won't easily flow out onto the floor like cold air will.
