The cause of the fire which erupted late on Monday and killed some 18,000 birds is being investigated by police.
The pillar of thick smoke that came from the burning hen house could be seen from a few kilometres away, according to reports.
Some 34,000 chickens from a neighbouring hen house were unharmed, thanks to firefighters, Polish Radio’s IAR news agency reported. (vb)
