A friend of ours brought home from a working holiday in Oz an Aboriginal cook book written as a fundraiser for the local aboriginal community. After reading through several recipes a certain theme emerged. It went like this.... hit with a rock, throw it in the fire, taste like chicken. Perhaps you should take a leaf out of the locals book and start eating what comes into your chook house!
ReplyDeleteLove to you both as always

Hmmmm? Yes, there is potential, in true permaculture style, for turning a problem into a productive solution here....see the chook house as a snake and goanna trap (not to mention the land mullet, another big lizard, that declined to be photographed or filmed whilst exploring the chook house). Roast carpet python? Well, the carpet python is productive in its own way, hunting down and eating rodents and other snakes. They are good to have in or around your house. However they have been known, the bigger ones, to eat whole chickens! Being of 20th Century Western culture, it'll probably take the total collapse of capitalism before I start hitting goannas on the head. So could happen any time now!
