Largest fox farm in the US discovered?

This week a tipster reported a previously unknown fox farm west of Chicago. The address is:

1498 N. 3975th Road
Earlville, IL 60518

Aerial images indicated many rows of sheds, in addition to the outdoor pens commonly seen at fox farms. It is not unusual for fox farms to have enclosed sheds, however a look at satellite images of this location reveals a number of sheds that may be unheard of at a US fox farm. Take a look:

The outdoor pods are visible on the left, with numerous sheds occupying the rest of the property.

There are two possibilities here:

  • The sheds hold mink.
  • The sheds hold fox, making this one of – if not the – largest fox farms in the US.
