The roof of this chicken barn at 5175 Ohio 119, St. Henry, sustained heavy damage after it was hit by high winds Friday night. The owners, Marv and Jean Homan, said this morning the 125,000 chickens it holds are still in the barn; some are drowning from the feed which is full of water and others are so stressed they may not survive the move out of the barn in the near future. A crane is expected to arrive today to remove the remaining roof which is caving in on the four-high rows of chicken pens beneath.
