Did the free settlers on the first fleet get to eat as much as they wanted?
No - when the first fleet first arrived, there were severe food shortages, and as a result, food was severely rationed. To solve this problem, governor Arthur Phillip granted land to settlers in the hope that they could grow crops to feed the starving settlement (at that time, Australia was regarded as Terra Nullis, without the recognition of Aborigines as the owners of the land). The first success was James Ruse, who successfully managed to grow crops near Parramatta.
Did they eat chicken on the first fleet?
Chickens came with the First Fleet to Australia. Some of these may have been prepared by the cook for the officers of the Fleet, but it is unlikely that many would have been eaten, as they would have been needed for breeding stock upon arrival in the new colony. Convicts would not have eaten chicken.
Why did pigs get introduced to Australia?
Pigs were introduced into Australia as a supply of food with the First Fleet, which arrived on 26 January 1788. Among the livestock and provisions, 32 pigs are listed as being on the First Fleet.
