Farming, fishing and logging equipment. For a start. Construction tools. I'll probably come back with more.

For the first year we should only eat 50% of eggs and 20% of the chickens to grow a large population. |

Sleeping bag
Cast iron pan/pot
Propane
Iodine tablets
Mirror
Shovel
Tarps. Lots and lots of tarps
Sat. Phone with dedicated solar charger
Heavy coat and/or heavy duty rain jacket
Rope
Chickens are a must as a protein source, as well as their feathers can be used for fishing lures, bones for mulch, and chicken shit for compost

A way that we could deal with the low amount of protein from meat is to breed crickets/beetles or other insects that are high in protein. I had three tarantulas three years ago when I lived in Alaska and bred crickets so I didn't have to buy over priced food for them. It is not hard to breed them, contain them, and cook them. I know most Americans think bugs are scum and disgusting, yes roaches are vermin but crickets are delicious. I found a website that gives many facts as to why eat/produce crickets. This company breeds them for human consumption and also has the different stats of breeding crickets vs cattlehttp://bigcricketfarms.com/faq.html, and another website showing different recipes for crickets www.insectsarefood.com/recipes.html. If people are not squeamish of insects I could buy some and start breeding them again except I would breed each generation in a slightly higher salt content spray for each generation to get them used to island type environment. |

I'm not living on the opposite side of the world to feed off insects. There are plenty of options available, forget that one. |
