The farmer also revealed that numerous bomb sounds were going off all day causing poultry to flee.
“I went to Larne and when I came back the dog was shivering under a chair and the hens had all gone. Then I heard there had been another explosion while I was out,” he added.

“Another neighbour’s cow and calf jumped the hedge and the cows were bellowing in fear. My neighbour was feeding bulls in the field when it happened. They stampeded and knocked him and the feeding trough over,” he explained.
While the people of Ballygally support film making they wanted notice for explosions.
“If we had a schedule, we could put the animals into barns. At the minute we are on tenterhooks,” he added.
