This sounds like something to look into. I'm just wondering why they want to focus on just chickens. Setting up a good survival retreat/ self-sustaining farm starts with picking a good location and...
I used to raise meat rabbits and if anyone else is thinking about it there are a couple points to consider. The feed to meat ratio on the giant rabbits is very poor and they are very big boned. Every...
I don't drink my own urine and I don't go running around the woods naked. I guess that means I'm not a good fit for TV.
I strongly agree with Sarge ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS thoroughly check the area before sleeping on the ground. I have never found a used needle but I can't tell you how many tines I have found broken...
If I can ever manage to sell this house I am already planning to move back to TX or OK.
They haven't been my street yet.
The Ruger Mini-14 only comes in .223. I have a Mini-30 (7.62 x 39). I could take deer and hogs with a 7.62x39, 150 Grain Jacketed Soft Point but it doesn't have enough versatility to make my list....
They are really getting desperate for ways to keep people watching these kinds of shows. I still can't understand why the producers don't want to go a DIY type series about urban and hobby farms. I...
Everything I can find online says that trying to keep a bull as a pet is a bad idea. They can be real easy going and one day without warning they turn into killers. My grandfather raised beef and...
I picked up a dozen Ausable 3/32" snares on Amazon for $14.99. At that price it made more sense to me to buy them ready made than to make them myself. They should hold all but the largest boars. The...
If anyone wants to get away from society you don't have to run away to the wilderness, you can buy my house. Sure I have lots of neighbors and people that walk by the house but they aren't going to...
My unit is a Respironics REMstar Auto. I like this unit because it is one of the smaller and lighter units. For home use the main unit consists of 2 components, a large AC to DC adapter and the Main...
I gave hundreds of those GG shots when I was a medic. It was a thick viscous liquid that had to be stored refrigerated. Getting a shot of cold jello in the backside is a good analogy. I also gave...

Some people have better results using a hardwood like oak for the drill and a softwood like pine for the fire board.
It's interesting but I have my own stick/stool design. It's more of a one-legged stool, like a milking stool. I used a solid 60" oak staff. On the top end I attached a wire rope loop. From that I use...
I'm already trying to sell my house and get out of here because this city is in a real preppers nightmare zone. The government is becoming more and more aggressive about taking away the rights of...
I know of plenty of places in the western states where you can live without getting caught doing it. Of course the living environment in those areas are so severe that you wouldn't be alive for long...
Try spending 2 months living in a tent with temperatures ln that range! We saw temps go as high as 120°. I did that in 1983 Operation Bright Star. The old style O.D. canvas tents got unbearably hot...
That's interesting because it's very similar to how I got started. I found a copy of the Herters Guide Manual in our local library and bought my own copy so I could take it to our local state forest...
I have come across a compact folding survival bow that you might want for your BOB. I'm having trouble pasting the link into this post but you can use goprimalnow.com with the rest of the web prefix...
I came across this forum on a google search. I belong to a few survival and homesteading forums to meet other people with similar interests. I am currently living in the northeast but I have my house...
