Russell Brittain says the loss is “Devastating,” and he is not sure what he will do next. That, after a fire overnight destroyed a 450-foot long chicken house building and killed about 11,000 chickens.
“It hurts to see this,” said neighbor Tracy Fox.
She and others stopped by to tell their neighbor they were ready to help, “In any way that we can.”
Investigators say the fire was accidental and probably electrical but they’ve not pinpointed what shorted out.
Fire crews from across the area were not able to save that building and the chickens inside but were able to protect a similar building just feet away.
