About Gold Shaw Farm: Gold Shaw Farm is more of a farm-in-progress than an honest-to-goodness farm. We dream that someday we can transform our 150+ acre parcel of land into a regenerative and productive homestead and farm.

[@asdfjkl5713]

You ever feel like Andre or John Studd when you have to step over the weird chicken fence?

[@GoldShawFarm]

Always!

[@gratitude7397]

​@@GoldShawFarm😂

[@urkiddingme6254]

I had to look that one up! Andre looking like Little John in the old Robin Hood series. John Studd looking like Father Christmas in his red and white coat. :) Thanks for the education. Stepping over the fence into the geese area is what would make me feel like I'm entering the fight ring.

[@highpsi11]

So many camera placements and so much editing is involved in each of these videos! It's a whole job in and of itself! The animals seem very relaxed and content, and I reflect on how incredibly many skills you've acquired, Morgan! So much work, research, thought and trial and error has gone into your farm - it's very impressive!

[@barbarahouk1983]

I have been a viewer during Morgan's ups and downs. I have seen him grow in many areas. He is far less of a leftists as reality has shown him many of the foolishness of the far left ideation. I grew up in the farming community of NE Ohio. I gained real hard science (yes, skipped the leftists crap by questioning a did my own research) and refused to let the school systems keep me away from the humanities. I am in the 1% of the high intelligence in this world; I was found by Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society and I am a lifetime member. I laugh at the STUPIDITIES of hard leftists ideation like man made climate change. I never fell for environmentalism; I studied the science of ecology. There is NO Whole in the Ozone; but rather, various thinning spots. This is CAUSED BY A VOLCANO in the South Pole, so no regulations have had ANY effects (I checked when leftists were crowing about regulations imposed had brought down the # of Ozone thinnings and found the volcano had by the same amount DECREASED it daily output- no man intervention, THUS USELESS EXPENSIVE REGULATORY INTERVENTIONS for no good reason). Sadly, Morgan nor many other people have the devotion to science/affects on society as I do. Many cannot because Maths ARE REQUIRED to fully understand and US educational systems have failed in this area (often deliberately). The propaganda, which I refused and worked around took much work on my part so I am not angry with Morgan; I am sad. His attitude is in the right place. I too think one should not "shit in one's own nest" as my father put it. One should run a sustainable operation. Reuse & repurpose is a good thing. The lies under recycling angers me. All this extra energy, effort and resources to try to recycle only to endu up in a landfill anyway is criminal. This is a tragedy. Too much gov intervention for individuals to find real solutions. Yes, with enough energy matter can be changed. 1980's we could have huge natural gas if gov regulations had not deliberately stopped it. 1980's we could have had Thorium Salts nuclear reactors if gov regulations had not stopped it. Energy would be more than affordable. The last 60 yrs has been about media control to control as much as global corporations/gov could. Only now are some people awaking to MARXISTS IDEATION of control. There are so many ideas of control. It's all about the code of behaviors. All philosophies (that includes all religions) have a code of behaviors. Question: does the code of behaviors you follow agree with Natural Law?

[@marthafluharty]

I just love how the geese and ducks waddle after you to be fed. “Make it grain!”

[@Buhfay]

These types of videos are my favorite of yours, just really nice shots of you and your animals.

[@birkenwald1337]

And no Morgan talking 💯

[@EileenGoehring-lb8hy]

@@birkenwald1337 Know what you mean 🤣

[@zaug1561]

I agree. I'm just here for the animals. When he starts giving history lessons or gets political, those are the videos I skip.

[@piteusx8440]

Yep. I like Morgan's video of the farm, animals, and his effort to learn about efficient farming. I hope Morgan figures out a way to create a sustainable pond in the near future. That would be really interesting.

[@piteusx8440]

​@@zaug1561Yeah. While I hold similar politcal views to Morgan, it's probably best to keep it minimal. However, I do like his personal stories of himself, neighbors, friends, wife, etc. Morgan is great story teller when comes to that.

Your animals always make me feel better.

If you care about animals you don't have time get stressed just work and take glare of them!

[@rembautimes8808]

I really liked the pigs 🐖. They were so focussed on eating

[@xTreeCow]

Nothing like Gold Shaw Farm ASMR to begin the day. ❤Thank you for these kinds of videos Morgan, it's always wonderful to see you and your animals!

[@dagamerking]

Let me just say that this video came out at the literally the vest time for me. It's hella busy at my work in a grocery store in central Florida because of the Hurricane. So this quiet almost zenfull episode on my break is so nice. Thank you Morgan! Love your videos!

[@kellikrueger7685]

I'm in central Florida. What hurricane? Lol Are the stores really busy because of a tropical storm watch? People are crazy.

[@demidonopchenko934]

I'm glad to see Abby dog recovering better!

[@SharonRepici]

Bitter Apple never worked for my dogs but so many people swear by it, and if it's effective at keeping Abby from licking her wounds then more power.

[@phillipdailey]

I absolutely love this format! I could hear your voice in my head narrating, but allowed my own storyline. Great work Morgan! Keep the fascinating content coming!

[@Zergling.]

0:57 Really liked this touch, giving attention to Toby only and not letting Abby "stop it", we know how Abby can be sometimes when you are giving affection to Toby, what you have done there was so good for Toby, and Abby too, so she can see that you like Toby as much has her.

[@IbelongtoJesus.]

I agree

[@sjbock]

Toby completely ignored Abby. He doesn't miss her one bit.

Just another day doing chores, building fences and feeding the animals and making sure everybody's happy. Thanks Morgan, always a pleasure!

[@wolf12king17]

I do have to say the videos that start off with little to no noise outside of the animals/environment is just really nice and peaceful.

[@anp_1541]

This is such underappreciated content. No talking just work in the day in a life of a farmer. Minus of course plenty of stuff that happened throughout the day but still. Well done Morgan. Relaxing content

[@anp_1541]

What would you like to discuss?

[@piperleelee]

A perfect peaceful video after a stressful weekend.

[@loveahusky]

Watching you makes my 7 cayugas seem simple, LOL. You are so amazing, the care you provide your beautiful animals. They are such a gift. My little flock provides me so much peace.

[@RJ-go3sn]

Love seeing the ducks and geese following you! Thank you for my lunch time moments of zen!

[@spottedsparrowgardens9999]

Toby and Abby running around the pond caught my dog's attention and she alerted and started to run! Lol😂

😄👍

[@shawnreap]

Reminds me of those sounds of nature segments at the end of CBS Sunday Morning. Love it.

[@shawnreap]

@@howardj602 Aww... sad to hear that. I haven't watched in years, honestly. I fondly remember watching it with my dad when I was a kid, though.

[@soitgoes_1334]

You're just one small farm in this big ole world but the story you tell is like a great movie in action. The way you make your videos is beautiful. Every animal has its place at the Gold Shaw Farm...🥰

[@jd9351]

Great video. I appreciate how you are trying a lot of variety in your style. It keeps everything so interesting.

[@opheliavandergurgleduffen6426]

This is a wonderful video, Morgan. Just a peaceful day seeing a farmer doing well by his animals.

[@drivecFC]

shout out to all the extra work you have to put in to record these vids. I really enjoy your vids thanks

[@krisfinley6706]

Couldn't help myself, saw Morgan with the large flock in the thumbnail/intro and immediately thought of him as the Pied Piper of Peacham😄😉🐓🐤🦆

[@ladyteruki]

Oh it's been a while since you last posted a video like this :) My favorite part was duck bathtime ; I don't remember a video where it was shown in such detail. It's very cute. 1:38 Depends on the translation. In the original Chickenese it's more "please like, subscribe, check the bell, and follow me on other platforms". 2:55 What is the bird we hear in the background ? 3:30 The outraged screams crack me up XD "Unhand me, human !" 7:50 Between Bonnie and Belinda, is there a dominant Junior Boss Cow ?

[@caseyleichter2309]

These quiet episodes are lovely, they give us a chance to observe on our own, kind of. I get such a kick out of the chickens hurrying over when the Flypaper All-You-Can-Eat Buffet shows up.

[@IbelongtoJesus.]

Very enjoyable and amusing video, and i loved watching the geese all waiting for you and following behind you 😅 so cute

[@jgurka2105]

Great videography, story-telling, and editing, as always. A delight!

[@krispy777]

As much as I enjoy your storytelling, I do appreciate these type of videos as well. I know it’s lots of different camera setups and extra time (likely doubling your chore duration). Thank you for another great video.

[@KatMcLean-si3vs]

Randy is certainly growing up. I'm glad that he's still gentle.❤️👍❤️

[@GarbanzoBeansFan]

i love seeing the pigs. hopefully you'll continue this project even after the current are gone

[@OriginalNethead]

I love that "PUT ME DOWN" noise the ducks make. And runner ducks in general. And the barn cats. I do not love flies, but the chooks sure do.

[@ceha9517]

As much as I think you are a great story teller I enjoy these quiet videos. Just the cows munching on the fresh grass and the dogs and cats rooming around. :) Thank you.

[@HelpfulHoney]

Thank you Morgan! We asked for this and you delivered ❤ It wasn’t long enough!!!😂😂😂😂 See! Give us what we ask for and we want more. Seriously though, this was so relaxing after a hard day at work. The sights and sounds of the farm and nature in general are so soothing! I do hope you’ll upload more on occasion 😁

[@lukeknowles5700]

Morgan, that was a very impressive amount of raw footage you must have taken to compile such a wonderful overall video! You are an artist.

[@serene889]

Awesome video Morgan. you allowed the viewers to take it all in on what you do day in and day out. Thanks for allowing us too experience this with you & the farm animals. P.S your gonna have lots of bacon. Those 3 pigs tripled in size since coming to your farm.

[@BaalFridge]

Thanks for making these videos Morgan. The escapism from city life it provides is cathartic. And you, you're living the dream for all of us, but mostly for yourself ❤

[@vegasa2067]

I feel the exact same way. I grew up in a rural area with a huge farm next to our house. Now I live in NYC and damn, these videos give me a nice little mental break

[@jmflying]

Good to see Abby still chases birds, old ingrained habit that will go unbroken

[@captainandthelady]

This is what's called "honest work". It is so relaxing to just watch. Thanks for posting.

[@mitzigaynor-rz5zn]

Made a lovely Tuesday morning video here in Oz. I loved the quiet peaceful solitude of just you and your animals. The recycling of the used fly paper by giving it to your chooks to consume the bodies from was fabulous, genius in fact. Loved the ducks and geese running after you as you walked around your estate and the happy piggies, cattle etc. You seem to have very calm and content animals and birds which demonstrates your love for the job of farming and your livestock. 🇦🇺🦘🦘🇦🇺

Abby chasing the wild ducks just really drives home the point that she’s not very good for birds… I can’t wait to see her spend the winter with the cattle and see if they accept her as a member lol

[@sjbock]

The way Toby greats Morgan and completely ignores Abby shows Toby doesn't miss her presence at all.

Let those weird ducks live their lives, clearly they identify as chickens.🥰🙃 I'm still so excited you decided to start feeding the 'fly flock' from the papers it's a good summer sustainable for them to get extra protein & fatten up for winter & You featured my favorite bird getting a snack. Barred Rocks tickle me... heh zebra chickens.😊

Nah, all the weird chickens were staying in the coop away from the big lumps, that's why they have their own area.

Nice relaxing video. You don't have to talk and explain all the time. Hope you guys have a great week!

[@HenryHarcsa]

Lovely, no narration needed, visuals do it themselves. Reminds me of summers spend with my grandparents on their small homestead. No cows, they didn't want to deal with large animals, but they had a pair of goats and the young ones were so fun to hang around, always so full of energy.

[@Ina_5686]

I love this type of videos because I get to observe and learn from our animal friends!

[@catherinehubbard1167]

Lovely video. It builds on all the incidents and adventures and stories you have given us over time and reminds us. I’m amazed that the chickens can pluck off the flies without getting stuck.

[@KatBrat38]

Ducks are SO dramatic!!! They should have an Oscar just for them.

[@american_chicken3378]

Well, today was a blessed day for me as well. I finally managed to get water to the 3 families of chickens I have. I used gardening hoses (wrapped nicely around the buildings so they don't just hang), 90 degrees connectors, 1/2 connectors, fast joints, zip ties, screws, perforated metal strips and 3 fancy faucets. Now everything I have to do when they run out of water or I need to clean their bowls is to switch the valve, and voila! I'm actually really proud of myself for this one, no more buckets carried across the entire property 😁😁. Now I can't wait to get my food, start the video, and see what Morgan prepared for us in this magnificent video from this beautiful channel that inspires me to be a better animal owner.

[@mjtomaszewski76]

Please do this type of video at least quarterly. It was such a relaxing end to my day. I was watching it on TV, and came to my phone to comment this, so you know I really liked it.

I love these "quiet" videos Morgan! Thanks for including them in your rotation. They're a joy to watch. 💕

[@youarebymyside]

THANK YOU. I really needed this tonight. There are so many things I enjoy in this video: 1. The new chickens are getting bigger! Definitely small compared to adults, but way bigger than what I remember them to be from the previous time. The black tail looks promising! 2. Geese cleaning themselves. 🥰 3. Pablo! Baby boy old man. He's so gentle. 4. The natural sounds! My goodness, it's one of my fav types of videos. Just sounds of nature and the birds and the dogs. No voice over needed. 5. Your bike is functional again! Yay! The sound of it and the wind is so soothing. 6. Those side barn things looks interesting. Is it for keeping your instruments or? Would love to learn about that. 7. The cows munching away, the sound of that. ❤ Probably something else, but I watched the entire video as is in one sit and might've forgotten something. Things I dislike: 1. Abby chasing away wild ducks. :( I don't think there's any harm in them? She's getting wild with all the chasing and playing with the birds again. Not good. 2. Abby's wound heals so slow? That's not good as well. Hopefully it'll get better soon! 3. A pig bullying another pig? What's that about? Not nice :(

[@Sarafimm2]

I think Abby chasing away wild ducks is actually a good thing. First, they deplete the area that is meant for the farm fowl. Second, they still carry the risk/possibility of Avian Diseases (flu) which could cause Morgan to completely wipe his entire farm of fowl. I'm not sure if that would be the case for one year or multiple years as it might depend upon the type of disease. As to Abby's wound, I think that's because Abby keeps licking (and possibly chewing on it). Just like how a scab itches as it heals, if you keep scratching or pulling it off, the wound partially reopens and it takes longer to heal. Probably why Morgan was using the "flashlight" vet collar and now the "Bitter Yuck" spray to stop her from licking it. As for the pigs, just like most animals, they have a hierarchy as to who has first go at the food and the hierarchy is always being challenged--especially because everyone wants to be first to the food. Food is among the first requirements in the Basics for Survival and it is ingrained into every living creature.
