And the chooks. Great idea, then after winter the place will be ACE.

Letting chooks into your garden is like using a
shotgun on the cockroaches. The ducks are much
gentler - they don't scratch, just dig their
beaks through the soil. They will still eat or
trample seedlings and salad-type veges.

Yep but if youre not growing anything over winter, its a great way to
get your weeding done for you plus your insects etc.
