Helpful garden (and kitchen) pets

All pets are great, but some will help you in your kitchen and garden as well as being great companions. Here are a few of them:




Worms: Worms might not be cute and cudly, but they can help a lot in the garden.
KITCHEN: Worms eat all kinds of kitchen scraps. Here are some: Carrot peelings, potato peelings and cucumber peelings.
GARDEN: The wee and poo of your worms act as great fertilizers for your soil.




Goats: They're very cute, and make milk.
KITCHEN: The milk of your goats (only females make milk) can be used in the kitchen.
GARDEN: Goats are one of natures own lawnmowers! But move then to different patches regularly.




Horses and ponies: they make great pets and are rideable. In some parts of the world, horses are used to pull ploughs.
KITCHEN: Mare's (a mare is a female horse or pony) milk is very expensive to buy in shops, but if you have one, you can make your own.
GARDEN: Horse manure is great for the garden.
