How to "phase out" of chicken ownership?

I've owned chickens for the better part of 30 years. I have an aging flock and am hesitant to get more chicks because -- projecting into my future -- I probably won't be keeping chickens much longer. But I now have 5 aging hens and wanted some advice for how best to "phase out" or "wind down" from chicken ownership. Do I just give them all away now... let them lives out there lives naturally (even if that means I only have a single chicken at some point?)
