It was around 4000 and only a couple died.

I thought for sure it was going to be a sausage fest when i was watching that thing blow thru those barns.

first report i whatched didnt say that some had died but i guess some have now..really i figured a whole lot would die because of the way those are bread(sp), ive had alot of friends i know work out there and they said you could just walk up on them fast and scare them and they will fall over and die from a heart attack..ambers dad and brother haul them every once in a while and they said theres some that will almost always die from the farm to the slauter house
