Roosters Die in New Milford Barn Fire

Pigs, chickens, goats and alpacas survived.

Pigs, chickens, goats and alpacas made it out of a barn fire in New Milford Friday morning, but four roosters did not, according to the fire marshal.

Firefighters were called just after 9 a.m. to respond to 119 Town Farm Road, a barn that Connecticut Audubon Society owns.

The surviving animals were taken to other nearby locations, officials said. The barn is salvageable.
