now i have to work stuff out about grit and lousing and disinfectant.

A handful of grit a day for 3 chickens should be fine in with their feed
Lousing should not be necessary if the coop is primed, but keep an eye on them pecking themselves a lot. We get bird feeder disinfectant from Pets at Home to clean the coop out with, but soapy water is fine if you leave it to dry for a bit.
