Hello R/jokes, Please Help Me Reword This Joke?

Hi there

My partner's dad passed away, and I'm giving a small speech for him at his memorial. His favorite joke is below and I'm going to use it, but I'm struggling to deliver it as well as he did. Can you help with delivery tips, or reword it for me?

The joke: A farmer has 3 sons and they fight over the chicken legs, each wanting one. So to satisfy all 3 sons the farmer comes up with this rare breed of chicken that has 3 legs…

Well, are you going to ask how they liked it? They couldn’t catch it because it ran too fast with 3 legs!
