I would live to have chooks but given the fact the lease says no pets and they've let us get the rabbit and care for dogs short term, I'm not gonna push it. We are also in an area that is fairly new and the fixed haven't learnt it's totally a no go zone yet lol. I've heard putting chooks over the garden at the end of the season is good for digging everything over and feet losing so maybe I could do that. Just borrow them short term lol

Not sure we can afford a compost tumbler. But its something to aim for. We now have one less car and DH has given up the idea of a trailer to replace the ute so that may be something to aspire to around Christmas when rego would have been due - wont change the savings budget before then and see how we go

Out this way, I don't think we will have much option but to get worms from somewhere like bunnings.

What type of warm farm do you have? We were looking at a couple that you can get at bunnings - a round one or a rectangular one. Can't remember the brand but the website was tumbleweed (has lots of info about composting, worm farms etc. normal au site)
