How much would you sell a processed free range turkey? I have a friend that is interested in possibly getting one of our turkeys.

In my area, free-range Turkeys go for 5.99 a pound and up--and you have to preorder.
I don't think that may be appropriate for selling to a friend---but just to let you know.

If a family visits another family outside for swimming, is it safe?

Depends on how carefully they pay attention to social distancing guidelines and personal space in pool. I would be very careful in questioning beforehand to find out if anyone routinely engages in risky behaviors (group activities, parties), do they work in dangerous environments, have they remained cautious since reopening or are they out and about like there is nothing going on, do they frequent bars...? Basically, socializing with any group who you aren't very familiar with comes with some substantial risks... they can be managed, or reduced greatly with attention to precautions but have to be considered.
 
Dennis, God Bless him, is sending me chicks that should arrive on the 2nd. Laverne's hatch day is the 4th but I've noticed that when Niko hatched eggs, they usually were on day 20, not 21. So....can I just shove the chicks under her or will they be too old? Will she still want to hatch the 3 eggs? Or should I get a brooder set up?

PANIC IN SALLADASBURG!!!!

They should arrive Wed (7/1), at the latest, maybe even tomorrow. If you put them under the broody before she hatches her eggs, she may abandon the eggs, but if not, if will certainly not be good for the chicks hatched today to not get food or water until the other chicks hatch.
I think you will need to raise them in a brooder, not under a hen. Adding 15 chicks to her hatch seems like a bit much for her to handle anyway.
