Matthew is settling into the routine of life on the farm and, impulsively, he decides to add turkeys to his menagerie - a decision he starts to regret. Meanwhile, he attends to installing a wood-fired stove, a practical but initially expensive way to cook and heat his house. To ensure good outcomes from its use, he and Nick visit Nene on Bruny Island for a lesson. In return, he offers to roast one of his turkeys. As it cooks, they go abalone-diving and return for a feast of abalone stir-fry and roast turkey. Back on the farm, another confronting challenge - Matthew must learn how to dispatch his over-supply of roosters, with the help of his friend Jen.
