7,000 baby turkeys die in fire; Thanksgiving orders affected

(AP) — A barn fire at one of New England's largest turkey-breeding operations killed 7,000 baby turkeys, and the farm's owners said that means they won't be able to meet all of their Thanksgiving orders.

The fire happened Thursday at Bob's Turkey Farm, a family-run business that began in 1954, and killed baby turkeys ranging in age from 1 day to 3 weeks old, so small they could fit in someone's hand.
