Keep your chin up, 
just deal with it and get out of there. 
I am sure someone will be able to take your chickens, and once that is aranged you will be able to move on, and maybe rebuild elsewhere. 
I went through this so many times, but I always made sure the house was mine. 
I have given up now, I just take care of my house and my sons, and my chickens.  Pain is a great teacher. 
I wish you all the best, sorry I am in the UK so I can;t help with the chickens. 
Move on and be happy, 
Jena.
