3 free chickens with coop to good home

Description
I have 3 chickens that I love dearly, but there has been a recent death in my immediate family, which has required more of my time. I would like them to go to a home where they will be enjoyed and well looked after. ((I had more chickens in the past, photos show extra chickens. The white, brown, + red brown one are the ones I still have.)) I have 1 leghorn, 1 golden comet, and 1 unknown breed brown chicken (she lays smaller tan/pink eggs but has gone broody for the past few weeks, she does not peck or get mean when I take the eggs from her). The leghorn + golden comet lay every day, the brown one lays about every other day when she isn’t broody. I got them last June, they are almost a year old. They have a 4ftx3.5ft coop that I converted out of an old dog house that was on the property, its on cinder blocks and must be moved by at least 2 people... about 200 lbs. Will have to be moved maybe 50 yards by hand to your truck. I’ve been capable of dragging it when I’ve had to in the past but it’s a pain. So if you want to take it, bring some help, I wont help moving it. An attached covered run of 3ftx3ftx14ft comes with it. Run is connected to the coop by staples + stakes so its very easy to move. I have too an extra ~100yards of 3ft chicken wire for $50, I had used it as an extra supervised run and the wire is like new, purchased in March. If you want just the coop + run but not the chickens, you will have to wait until someone takes the chickens and doesn't want the coop. The chickens are free but I want to ensure they go to a good home. I will ask for pictures of where they will be kept/your existing coop or flock/or if you’ve had experience with chickens. They need a good source of calcium, Ive been giving oyster shells since they had a thin shell problem over the winter that has since been fixed, but that’s why I’d prefer someone with experience who can keep them healthy. They are very sweet and would be good with kids who are old enough to be calm with them. They have not free-ranged completely alone before, so they may not have the survival instincts of a true free farm chicken. Email is the best way to reach me, then I can give you my # from there, it’s the best way to keep myself from getting spam. Thanks for looking!
