LANGLEY, 小蓝视频 — A fire at a farm in the Township of Langley, 小蓝视频, has destroyed two large barns, killing thousands of chickens.
Deputy Fire Chief Cory Parker with the Township of Langley Fire Department says crews were called around 2 a.m. on Sunday and when they arrived the fire was already growing rapidly.
He says the two barns that burned were each about 365 metres long and an estimated 27,000 chickens were killed.
Firefighters were able to save a third barn on the property.
Parker says 10 trucks and 30 firefighters were required and the fire was brought under control in about five hours, though crews continued to extinguish hot spots throughout the day.
The cause of the fire has not been determined.
