Farming Simulator: Homestead Chores and Crazy Geese

Let's Play Farming Simulator: Homesteader Edition. Let's play as I down my morning chores around the farm. FS19? Not quite.
About Gold Shaw Farm: Gold Shaw Farm is more of a farm-in-progress than an honest-to-goodness farm. Our dream is that someday we are able to transform our 150+ acre parcel of land into a regenerative and productive homestead and farm.

First person homestead game! It will be all rage soon!

[@vmcougarintn5035]

My favorite thing is "All ducks go to bed!" I don't know why, but that short sentence says a lot. The geese are growing up. If you sit and read to them, they will come and listen. Always move slowly and never make a quick move. I remember my Aunt telling me that when she introduced me to her ducks. Aunt was a baker and as any hardcore baker will tell you, duck eggs are the best. (Grin) I could break a chicken egg and it was just, okay you broke one. However, break a duck egg and she would stare at you. It was awful. Your garden is looking fine, don't let the geese near it! I enjoy all your videos about the farm. Thanks for sharing. Hope you have a quacken great day.

[@juliem.679]

I really enjoyed your commentary as the video ran. Your efforts to tidy up as you go are commendable!

[@cooldinogaming2904]

Not gonna lie duck and geese farming simulator 2019 is looking pretty good no but seriously this was a cool and interesting way of formatting a video

[@BradMyers]

I like the explanation of your day. It helps one understand why you do certain things. Keep up the great work.

[@Berkeloid0]

For those of us hoping to make the transition to this lifestyle as well, a video like this is a real help. Would gladly watch them all, especially videos that cover the difficult things that you might not be aware of until you're living the life already.

[@nancylitton390]

Different format was nice for a change. I enjoy hearing your input. I would like to see your plans for your farm in the the future. Thank you for sharing.

[@crowgirl1326]

Like both formats of making a video. The call is yours. Too bad about your cat allergy because your cats seem to want your attention and the human contact.

[@kathleenperdue9753]

Nice job,thanks for taking us along for this look into your day. Love watching the ducks & geese too they are a joy. Very nice garden great for the two of you. Have a blessed day 😍

[@melissalucero9239]

Thank you for sharing your perspective with us. I enjoyed the narration too!

[@wrthrash]

Dude, get yourself an ATV mounted water tank (I have a 30 gallon for lots of diff use), or some serious water hoses on automatic-reels, hate to see you deal with this so often but is good exercise!!!

[@jessicabowling5645]

We have one. Ok probably the 5th one. Perfect for helping out young trees, taking water out to pasture, starting grass seed, watering the garden during drought, and you still pump water to the tank!

[@charlssneed9736]

This is a great concept that sets you apart from the crowd. You should absolutely do it more often!

[@a.a.6203]

Believe me, your Ducks and Geeze are rising social media stars, try to milk this as much as possible, this video was nice to watch

[@goosefarmer4738]

A. A. That’s funny

[@CassieDavis613]

A.A. That's true. That's what pulled me to this channel.

[@FoxySonia]

I like all your videos, no matter what format you use, even the ones where it's you just telling a story.

[@batpherlangkharkrang7976]

Hi..... Gold Shaw Farm, thank you for sharing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 🎥👍👍👍

[@jerylynbean7634]

This was very intimate in a friendly sort of way . I enjoyed it very much. I think this is how viewers want to interact with you Morgan because you are so open about your life. Do it again, please.

[@beesplease]

I thought this format of video was funny and interesting. I wouldn’t mind more like this from time to time, but I think I prefer your typical style of video more. Keep at it!

[@hellodolling6293]

I liked this format, and I love watching the ducks come out, when the camera's behind them and their waddling, I can't help but laughing out loud, and they are so excited to get out and around! We're planning on getting a small farm, I can hardly wait! Thank you for all the work you put into your videos, they always put me in a good mood!

[@131dyana]

I loved the day with your chores. Thanks.

[@elfwoodadventures2103]

Changing video style and content every once and awhile is good. It gives different perspectives, appeals to a whole new set of people, and social media is always evolving/changing. Good job!

[@lizatl1]

This was a great, entertaining and informative video. My favorite part of any Gold Shaw video is the delightful, clunky duck waddle as you release the quacken. They are adorable and I keep wanting to sit down in the field and enjoy their company. Thanks for continued views into your farm adventures...good and not so good.

[@GoldShawFarm]

Thank you!

[@theresathreadgill1386]

I enjoy watching your day! Ducks and geese are interesting. Have a great day!

[@ToonLeighporpeangfarmThailand]

Great to see a fellow 'farmsteader.' Your poultry look super healthy. As us quite rightly say 'duck muddy water instantly.' Some don't realise that ducks prefer to mix their feed with their water 😉

[@nanamary6]

I liked both format, nice change, would not like all of them to be this way

[@lucretiawrolstad3997]

I like this a lot it's a refreshing change from what is normally out there but I like both ways of doing it

[@whattheduck5499]

Duck pools are clean: A person without duck experience: "oh that's so nice, nice clean water for the ducks!" A person with duck experience: "Dude, what's wrong with your ducks?" 😁

[@sandrawiley5737]

Love it all. Have a happy day. Thanks for posting!

[@jmitch1115]

You can put a fence up and put chickens in there with those hay/poop piles to move them around and spread

[@pjmaynes8747]

Maybe do it once a week laying out your goals for the week and philosophies. Love to hear that you are happy and how you plan to get to your goals.

[@ryanpauloneeyed9669]

I WISH Farming Simulator 22 was that good! I'd play it 24/7.

[@virginiacollis4580]

Yr video's great! Love to watch u. U are such a trip!!! Luv it when u " release the quakens". Just cracks me up! Also luv it when u let the geese out especially when they stretch their wings. So cute. God bless and keep me laughing, please. Delia and me. 🤗😂😺👵

[@pjd3028]

LOVE this video! It's a great format and very interesting. Love that you had yourself superimposed on the video so you're not just a disembodied voice talking through it. Blessings from NE Missouri!

[@GoldShawFarm]

Thank you!

[@billywhyte6693]

"cbd plant" 😄 I chuckled all way to kitchen & back.. Yeah... the ducks & geese love "cbd" treatment 😅

[@GoldShawFarm]

😂🤣😂

[@davidrustage430]

This was an awesome first person perspective! Keep up the great content! Viewing from Tasmania :)

[@GoldShawFarm]

That’s so cool!

[@margaretbedwell58]

I enjoyed watching this video of your morning chores and also the use of the duck barn hay...that should make for some great pasture. Your cats are beautiful too...I love cats. Have a Blessed day.

[@stumbling]

All videogames are practice for farming: Puzzle games for training in problem solving. Strategy for planning long term. FPS for reflexes and awareness to defend the farm from predators. Minecraft is basically a homesteading simulator itself.

[@flautalee3090]

Great Video! I'm sitting here wearing my pink "All Ducks Go to Bed" shirt that I really like. I didn't realize that the ducks are actually three shades of grey. How nice! One new development: My two boy cats absolutely love your videos! They perked up when you were crunching through the snow in an earlier video. One of them actually lay down on the my laptop. LOL!

[@startfinish5613]

“Keeping it weed free” Yes, but actually no.

[@GoldShawFarm]

Ha ha ha ha ha

[@goosefarmer4738]

Alec Bossaer lol

[@marsee2302]

You have inspired me to add ducklings to our homestead....and we are enjoying them very much! I love how you tell them to go to bed! I'm telling ours "nightly night"...and they already know that means bedtime. Can't wait to try duck eggs!

[@GoldShawFarm]

Good luck!

[@joecomputerdude]

I'm on team hose as well. Our duck barn is about 300 feet from our house and when it's warm i just run a hose out there. It saves hours of time throughout the summer that I can spend doing other things. We still haul by bucket in the winter months, though.

[@apieli80s]

This is one of the best vlogs at this moment. Keep up your lifestyle, it seems to be very enjoyable one. Ducks are amazing creatures, I really hope I have a few of them sometimes. My dad had ducks all my childhood. Thank you again of this video, let them come many more - Release the Quacken!

[@GoldShawFarm]

Thank you!

[@lorraineroberge5793]

Video really put together super well. Thanks...enjoyed the video!

[@margaretannfrank5480]

That was fun! I enjoyed the perspective!

[@kathrinekerns8398]

Really enjoy your videos. Thank you for sharing. Wishing you much success in your adventures.

[@Miss449686]

I enjoyed this video--thanks for sharing.

[@brslib01]

I enjoyed watching your daily chores. I want to see more since part of each day will be different.

[@shaylagrubelnik]

quick tip: seed first then hay mulch dont compact just let settle, dont worry bout your birds sifting for the seeds it actually helps to spread the mulch. as for the cats stop feeding them next to the house and keep their food away from the house atm all your doing is enforcing the idea that house = food theyll still wanna cuddle and a pat but eventually they will get the idea and stop trying to break in

[@susanjones3039]

Really enjoy the information. Farming is so fun. Would love that job.

[@ArthurValencia9438]

Another very entertaining Vlog. Thank you. Art in CA

[@kazbleasdale1310]

Great video, enjoyed watching your morning routine.

[@fophie9541]

Let's play: Farmer Simulator

[@johnhartley3596]

I’d put the seed down first and then cover with the hay to keep the birds off it.

[@baemheadshot86]

this format is awesome, its almost like you can release the quaken all by yourself :D

[@newendoria1232]

Awesome duck farm and weed plants

[@SunraeSkatimunggr]

I love the virtual tour. I live in Oregon where we are allowed to grow 4 pot plants per household, which are in my veggie-garden. All that water lifting must be a good upper body workout:)

[@urielgrey]

This a nice style of video too :) more of this style is good to me. Hope you are having a awesome day!

[@pandaboipetsandmask392]

Hey man just found this channel, it's so amazing. I hope to one day have a farm as lovly as yours! Right now I have a small farm. Keep up the amazing work!

[@travisfrench147]

That's why you need a few chickens, they will spread out any kind of a mound they come across...plus add additional fertilizer

[@GoldShawFarm]

I'm working on that. Stay tuned!

[@edge29chaos]

Yeah whats gross is when they have no problem drinking that crappy water, but yeah same issue with my ducks and geese 20 minutes later the water is already starting to look murky

[@ivanlopez1424]

Yo I love your farm it's amazing and also your geese and quaken

[@ashanderson1555]

Pretty neat there Bud

[@zeldapinwheel7043]

i keep looking for newer videos, but im also trying to catch up on what ive missed for 2 years. hurricane laura is probably going to hit where i live. im stressed out, and i need my quack dealer.

[@TSUNAMI-MAMI]

Lmfao Morgan you’re so creative. This is such a funny idea 🤣

[@choochoodebut3059]

2x 5 gal buckets of water is roughly a combined 85 lbs, carrying them at your sides is a exercise aptly named the farmers walk. Good for upper back, core, shoulders, and forearms. Wouldn't bother with a network of water tubes unless you have a fear of becoming Hercules.

[@GoldShawFarm]

Exactly! I think the regular exercise (and focus on proper form) only makes me better.

[@lindapatterson3220]

that was fun. thanks

[@oostys8118]

Do you still do the" all ducks go to bed"?😁🤗. Hope so👍. Gardens looking great

[@GoldShawFarm]

Oh yeah!

[@judil3294]

That would make a good ending to videos if it was new each time.

[@ourselfreliantlife]

I feel you on the long term setup. That's why we hate building things until we're one hundred percent sure that's where we want it. Stacking functions am I right?😁 In the meantime, you have to be building a ton of muscle.

[@GoldShawFarm]

Exactly!

[@sandrapokhaipapachristos9825]

I like it a lot!😋

[@pjmaynes8747]

Love it.

[@erichusayn]

Fuck yeah! Love the garden dude.

[@marsee2302]

I like it!

[@BobGeorgeMalem]

Man, you have become leaner and stronger, as opposed to when you first started as a fat city boy. Good job

[@GoldShawFarm]

Thank you! Farmwork does the body good!

[@pepecocomax]

OMG your garden is awesome. I love how healthy and strong your garden looks. You are so right. I love when you release the Quacken. This was a great video. It was so much fun to see how you went about your business during the day, so interesting. I look forward to seeing your videos. You always make me smile. I appreciate you sharing all your experience good and bad. Always enjoy listening to your stories. P.S. I love my new shirt. Release the Quacken on the back of my shirt gets people asking what it is all about. Hopefully they check out your videos that I tell them about.

[@GoldShawFarm]

Thank you, Shirley. I have always appreciated your support and encouragement. I'm glad you like the shirt!

[@christianjorgensen4621]

Poultry sure are loud. I used to be with an electrical firm that used to do work at a chicken farm. Those big sheds were deafening.

[@pandaboipetsandmask392]

7:25 my favorite animal KZbinr catch prase!

[@Ad_Astra_321]

Just a thought about your cat allergy & allergies, in general... if you can get your hands on locally produced organic honey & eat some every day, it might help you. It'll take time... nature doesn't often work in "instant cures", right? =) The only provisos are that it's raw/unprocessed (not heat treated etc) & comes from the same area you're living in. You could read up on the theory behind all this... hope it helps in some way!

[@goosemomof6712]

Love it! Please don’t stop making videos, you are one of my favorite channels since I’m raising ducks and “was” raising Sabastopol geese until a raccoon wiped out the only 3 I had. I still have ducks but not getting more geese until I know they’ll be safe. 😟 So, I’m not starting that again until I’ve built a new duck/goose barn. For now I’ve found that I’m good at hatching, so I’m incubating eggs for people wanting to expand their flock. And I deep down seriously want to start a KZbin channel. Call it a dream that I hope I can make happen soon. ❤️ Thank you! Love you guys! Don’t stop, great work!! ❤️

[@GoldShawFarm]

Thank you! And I'm sorry to hear about your geese.

[@gpil2000]

Re: filling the water buckets...have you thought about making a pyramid of the buckets and fill the top one and the overflow filling the buckets below (sort of like the champagne glasses at wedding receptions) ? :D

[@angiebeanful]

really enjoyed this video !!!!! shovelling poop from barns is no easy task when my horses are in at winter time its a daily task cleaning 2 huge stables for my 2 massive draft horses they can poop for England lol really heavy work kills my back and hey I always end up sounding like dark vadar too haha !!!! keep up the amazing work :) your farms looking amazing :)AND AS FOR MUDDY WATER I ONLY CURRENTLY HAVE 8 DUCKS AND OMG WITHIN 5 MINUTES OF MY DUCKS GOING TO THEIR FRESH WATER ITS FILTHY LOL IT JUST HAPPENS PEOPLE LOL

[@Pack.Leader]

I liked this video. I like all your videos, so "I'm easy."

[@KelikakuCoutin]

I used to clip my Muscovys wings, you only need to cut two feathers from the middle of one of their wings. They can still catch a fair amount of air, that way though. They'd be able to clear that fence with only two flight feathers clipped. I like the new format myself, it's, to me, more focused and to me, it's easier to follow. It's clearer, narrating the activities in this manner. Great content. Keep up the good work! בס״ד

[@diestar1]

Suggest a sound panel or two in the room you record this type of video in but great job editing yourself in. "She does such a great job of making it look nice and keeping it weed free" *Rewinds 30 seconds* "These are our CBD plants..." Well that's not strictly true now is it ;)

[@littlewhitedory1]

CBD! How's that song go....she doesn't do it, but her sister will! CBD, is that like training products for when the rules change?

[@GoldShawFarm]

Ha ha ha ha

[@D8rk_Kitt3n]

I enjoyed this. I would like to see more of this. But I haven't:(

[@lynxacres1293]

I really liked the video. Thanks for it! I would do both styles of videos regularly :)

[@GoldShawFarm]

Thanks!

[@datgreedymouse6860]

Can we have a time lapse video where the geese eat grass? I just wanna see them level the land after

[@rsoubiea]

nothing cuter than seeing duck butts waddle, lol.

[@fureveryoungfarm3752]

This format is ok but I prefer the usual. But changing it up now and then for those who like it is a great idea.

[@ScarletCandlelight]

My last barn cat no longer goes into the barn after the dog attack in Jan 2019. He servived but is now terrified. He now lives inside with our elderly family cat. My older barn cats the nabors took them right out of our barn. Still working on getting them home. But ATM no cats working the barn. I now keep feed in my house till I can get my cats back.

[@miwanco]

It's an old video, so you're probably not reading my comment. I like this kind of video that your animals and choirs are in the center although you're talking through. I prefer non-political non-opinion talks. Thank you.

[@kofeebeanz]

either type of vid is good really, your barn cat sneaks in because it wants the attention you give it when you put it back out - you pick it up and then pet it -

[@calvinhidude5844]

This is interesting.

[@highroad3580]

In summer water catchment may be useful at least in part?

[@dannyschannel8152]

I enjoyed this video 🙂 but it'd rather see you out there with the ducks and geese 🐥🐥🐔🐔🐓🐓🐈🐈

[@dionandkat]

Haha. Summer?! :/. We cant hang in Vermont probably as we have been all fussy about 50+ f. Hahaha. You better come to texas betwee nov and feb

[@fredfrond6148]

What about growing fodder for the winter food for the geese?

[@kimclayton7728]

I like this format!

[@9realitycheck9]

Do the ducks and geese need calcium supplements like chickens need at times? Cool vid

[@dr.kawasaki7380]

*11:20** Wait whaaa?? "See me grinding... spreading the seed* " .... 😁😁😂😂🤣🤣 OK.........

[@johniac7078]

Brother, you need a tractor with some implements. Manual labor is ok for a while, but trust me, it get old. Tap off those water lines. Get some trenches dug to bring water to the out buildings.

[@GoldShawFarm]

Some day! Gotta keep saving my Adsense revenue.

[@patc6932]

Can you try rolling up the dirty hay and unrolling it on the field like it is sod? In the rainy season you could also set your buckets outside so they can ill even part way (for free).
