A massive fire broke out at Feather Crest Farms in Kurten, Texas, on Jan. 29, taking two days to contain.

Jason Ware, deputy emergency management coordinator for Brazos County, said at the time, “Upon arrival there were two buildings on Feather Crest Farms property.”

“At this time the fire is contained to the two buildings,” he added.

No human casualties were reported, and the cause of the fire remains unknown.

Approximately 100 firefighters from various departments worked to control the blaze.

The fire did not pose an air quality threat, but some local residents experienced low water pressure and power outages.

The farm was purchased by MPS Egg Farms in 2020 and had 96 employees at that time.
