Nuytsia, I am sure you are already doing this but, in case not, make sure you keep your chook manure as it's the best thing EVER for your tomatoes and other vegetable/fruit plants. Put it straight on and then water in or dilute it in water beforehand to make a liquid...whichever way you like, it's all great nutrition. I was thinking of you/this as I was feeding my plants this afternoon!
I love the alert we now get when someone makes a post while we're typing (in this case it was the 'thul beings
)...such a feature would have been handy when we were working on our three word story here...I'd always be typing my three words in only to then discover, too late, that someone had already done it! 
The fence is quite stout 'thul, and is made from chicken wire dug deep into the ground so that rabbits can't get through either, though the little ones have been known to squeeze through from time-to-time (it was those little critters who attacked my strawberry plants!)!
Of course, the fence is not quite stout enough to stop the bulls getting in over the top when they feel like it...!! 
The plants themselves are well away from the garden boundary, growing up sections of mesh attached to steel pegs to keep them off the ground and give them something secure to latch onto in our strong winds (if they were not so secured, they especially would have all been lost in the recent cyclone).
For our chook run, we also use chicken wire but we cement around the bottom edges, as well as dig the wire deep into the ground, to ensure our dogs, as well as visiting foxes, dingoes and goannas, don't get to enjoying a poultry dinner!
Having never seen a zombie, I am unsure as to any slaying tactic, let alone the best one...
