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.

My grandfather was a farmer his whole life. He lived into his 90's. He wasn't good about wearing sunscreen and it was no surprise he had multiple instances of skin cancer. In his later years he spent a lot of time having chunks of his face carved out and it was painful for him. I hope you are investing heavily in skin protection and taking it seriously. I don't want you to suffer like my grandpa did.

[@sean-or1nc]

@jadeskorpion bro the sunscreens cause the cancers. Nobody should be putting sunscreen on their bodies.. How do you not know that... If your grandpa ate a lot of grains with herbicides and pesticides within them that could be his cancer causes ... the sun is good for us. The whole world is mislead

A cliffhanger ending! I hope little chimken is okay. The farm does look lovely in the summer all lovely and green and I like the fly catchers coming in - flies ruin a lovely day. Thank you to Allison for coming in to the video - we don't get to see her often but it's always a treat when we do, especially when she's cuddling the baby animals. I too would cuddle the babas - they are so fluffy and cute 😊

[@FoxSaysDerps]

Seeing Allison glow and be so happy with the goslings was simply beautiful!! 🥺

[@jimenez_david95]

"Although it may seem gross the chickens potentially dinning on some of the fly larvae out of the cow dung/patty's, only for someone to possibly eat that chicken eventually." Can arguably be the best way for organisms to be processed naturally versus having a bird filled with synthetic lab made hormones.

[@TechnologyWitch]

The plants we eat are fertilized with poop, too. There's no avoiding feces on the food chain.

[@rodisham]

A couple of comments on the chicken coop: 1. Screwing through the end grain of the lumber makes for a weaker joint. The wood tends to split away over a relatively short period of time. With the droppings inside the coop falling on the cross members you’ll see those pieces deteriorate sooner than later. Maybe you’ve already accounted for that in the expected working life of the coop. I’d like to see more bee videos. I enjoy the evolution of your various learning curves, and I’ve enjoyed learning more about bee keeping.

[@carolyn9824]

They are amazing creatures. If there were no bees, we could not exsist. Honey bees don't sting. They only try to get you out of their bee line. So cute.

[@jumpinallans]

Joey was loving that tall grass!

[@gizmodud7267]

I really like this style of video Morgan, it felt like you interacted with pretty much all parts of the farm you use (far pasture, orchard, barn for the male cows and also the lower area with toby and the new bee hive. Also inside as you showed the baby gooselings. It just felt so relaxing and almost documentary-like as we go over everything but also not in so much depth that it can seem overwhelming.

[@markocosic5617]

Would be nice to have the hive fixed. Every time you walk on the pallet the whole hive shakes. 4 stumps and 4 2x6, you will have a solid stand. :) Nice to see that the bees are alive. Thumbs up!

[@dixsigns1717]

Also, 18" off the ground if you have skunks.

[@willgaukler8979]

... agreed the solid foundation is way better ...

[@Lynne2106]

When that hive gets heavy with honey it may break the pallet and tip over. We are all wringing our little bee loving hands out here. Bee careful!😅

[@LauraFunFunFloweries]

Yeah, pallets aren't put together very well, & break easily. We're not allowed to put both feet on them at work (Amazon warehouse), cause they break so easily & can cause injury 🤕

[@birdsndog5932]

Look at what wonderful lives your animals live. Outside, getting sunshine, eating what they normally would, able to interact socially with peers. Critter heaven.

[@meg1955]

You wondered if this video was 'too much'... I say no! I love this length, seeing as much as possible of your farm-beings every time.

[@JacquesTreehorn]

You don't need the wheels on your chicken coop if you have the strength of the tractor. I am a big fan of skid mounted stuff. Just put your stuff on wood skis and drag it. Skid mount is what they call it. I love skid mounted stuff. Easier to maintain. I like to see you using the tractor more.

[@cinammonstyx7622]

Yeah, wheels are kinda better when they work but skids are so much simpler. Really excited about your farm's progress! Didn't know I could get nostalgic about the coop design 😂

[@TomSarelas]

[@bkm2797]

That was a really nice picture of Allison, thinking it's worth framing. So where are the ducks and geese sleeping at night since you moved them up into the permaculture? Goslings are adorable and I'm so glad you were able to save those that needed assistance (except the one from the last group, sorry). All is well at the farm, thanks Morgan for the update.

[@colecolettecole]

[@littlemonkey4021]

Hi Morgan. I’m still amazed how great you look! I’m so happy for you. I wonder if you have considered using a real tree limb to roost instead of a square piece of wood. Seems to me that square wouldn’t be as comfortable on their feet. Love your channel brother. Take care.

[@jrrarglblarg9241]

Chickens like roosting on 2x2 with rounded corners. It fits their feet and gives secure purchase. Round roosts can be fine but sometimes a low rank chicken gets pushed to the uncomfortable spot, the end with too large or too small diameter. After several years I finally got smart and removed a piece of limb from my coop because it was too big for their feet to grip securely, replaced it with a smaller diameter one.

[@barbietrink4984]

Allison's eyes sparkle when she is with the baby gosling. She's a beautiful, kind and caring woman❤😊

[@piperleelee]

Another enjoyable day on your farm. The video started off with a humorous tone when moving the chicken coop. Then the animals got loose which also was hilarious. Thanks for a great video output. These are my favorite kind, just life on the farm.

[@sebbes333]

*@Gold Shaw Farm* 6:37 Wood is much stronger if bolted Across the grains, as compared to Along the grains. I suggest using a iron drill-bit, add a new hole on the "front"(?) side (non-wheel side) if the iron, then drill through the wood & add a bolt through it all, then add a washer, at least on the wood side, and a nut.

[@carolnewsome554]

[@harrietcarpenter2387]

[@derekeno7974]

I think it's so cool how far you've come with your cattle and how much trust is shared between them and yourself. I remember how hard it was when you were just trying to have one of them just take a alfalfa treat from your hand, now you're brushing them driving right up on them with your all terrain vehicle Abby dog is walking right through them and hanging with them all the time. It's just amazing what a little patience and perseverance gets you, very cool. They are amazing unique animals that I've learned from watching are extremely intelligent.

[@goswami]

Regarding the bees: Keep track of Varroa mites they can "desomite" a colony. There are a several methods to help with this Apivar Strips may be the easiest and more hands off method. Oxalic acid is another common method. You for sure should look into either a test kit or learn about the powder sugar method if you've not done that before. Hope this helps :)

[@lararabb8888]

Maybe spread something that flowers in part of the area you are rehabbing. Cog Hill spread some type of bee flower that is going great. Just sprinkled in here & there. Perhaps some sunflowers here and there. Something that does well in your climate. Also spreading appropriate seed behind the pigs with something that has some stuff with blooms. Giving the bees more to eat & store.

[@omians4452]

Seen some stuff of bees getting caught in the flow of honey. They can be saved if you get to them before they pass and set them by the hive opening and the other bees will clean them up.

[@Sarafimm2]

You can also set up the right type of fans (so they don't get sucked in) to blow them away from the honey and partially cover the honey drip system with clear plastic in tandem with a bit of plastic wrap if you have a large enough container. Any mistakes or drops can be cleaned up by the bees after you've taken it all down.

[@galerus3776]

Hey for the Bee's if I can suggest, getting a beetle trap and inspect your bees for mites. Mites are spreading amongst Honeybee's and especially their larva. These Mites will murder a hive, slowly, but surely.

[@janellevoigt5481]

Dear Morgan and Allison, oh how I miss baby goslings, I raised hundreds of them over the years and they were my responsibility to raise. So I throughly enjoy watching the videos you put out about them. Love to watch Gold Shaw Farm videos, and sorry if I come across with Hey Morgan, too much, yes if you can compost your hoop house gold, for a year if you can imo, to let it break down more and let the earthworms get into it and add their help and then wah lah, pure gold for whereever you put it, and on further thought add some of your barn collectings to the mix too, a mixed pile does wonders, lol, all right enough from me, have a great weekend!! Oh sorry couldn't help myself, we let some of geese hatch their own and we would get the fresh hatched and put them into brooders, just to keep them alive, rate of passing was too high if left with the parents out on the farm, and we also incubated the eggs, to hatch, for a higher rate of hatching. I'm gone lol

Keep in mind that chickens are very good at hunting ticks. So may be a good idea to kee a few around Toby dog. Supposedly Guinne Fowl are especially good a tick murdering.

I think a lot of the bee keepers on youtube tend to have more than one set of hands to be able to do both the management and filming parts. I don't know anything about it, but it looks awfully involved to take care of bee's even for people who have been doing it forever. It's a good thing you're a dedicated life long learner.

[@victorcaceres9603]

For your rebuild, you might consider building the walls like an A-Frame. This might achieve two things: The base would be wider and allow less bird droppings to accumulate on the edges. The wider base / \ might contribute to better stability. The roof could be rounded to prevent snow build up and perhaps have room beneath for additional roosts. Another thing, watching the chickens exiting one at a time through that door I found disturbing. You might consider a design that allows multiple chickens to exit at the same time. Maybe keep the small door dedicated as a "Walk-in" to ensure that all the chickens can be directed. The other door dedicated as an Exit and be made wider/bigger. Looking forward to the new design.

[@Sarafimm2]

He already had a problem moving it about the farm. A wider base would be even harder to deal with. It would actually be better if he built a small shed up on the top pasture. During the winter, he could use it to house spring/summer items like a larger chicken coop and his anti-fly buckets and double sided tape. Not sure, but maybe even a spot for his barn cats to use if he finds them wandering up there, too. If he could get sets of huge poles put into the ground in various parts of the pasture, the poles could be used as anchors for sun screens. So he could put up reinforced multi-holed screens/tarps and anchor them to the poles creating shade. It would be another step in his moving the cattle, but better than trying to move his shade and scratch mobile around with them. And he could anchor the "scratchers" to the posts in a way so he could move them, replace them as needed, and store them in the shed during winter so they don't deteriorate in the snow. Same with the shade cloths. To bad he didn't plant some more of his fruit trees on his first year of the farm on the upper pasture to provide food and shade for his cattle for later years. Of course, if he continues to get pigs to open up his forest on his side of the stream, he can cut some of the trees down, but leave some up to provide a good amount of shade and let his cattle graze that area during the worst part of the summer. Or get a local goat herder, if he has any, to help him out if he doesn't want to continue with the pigs. It'll be interesting what more he might uncover as he opens up the area under his forest. That vehicle was cool!

[@prcervi]

there wouldn't be as much space for nesting boxes though and the width of the thing is already a proven issue it'd help if it was more bottom heavy, how that would be achieved i'm not super certain (heavier kit for the base? something to cut down the wood weight at least)

[@Sarafimm2]

@@prcervi Just spitballing here: If he had round end (like a pirates hook--can't think of the name off the top of my head) bolts along the bottom screwed into the metal and then attached weights to weigh down the base, it might help? He could just use the weights while moving the coop instead of keeping them on all the time. Or use them on specific sides when he knows that the coop would tip in one direction--either while moving or when there is a heavy winds day?

Loved your camera in the coop too. We often see critters on the move from outside thier enclosures but "never" from inside.

[@FoxySonia]

Morgan, I love watching your videos, you're one of my favorite KZbinrs. I see that you're keeping the brooder plates way too low, making it very difficult for the goslings to get under them to keep warm. Please raise the brooder plates up to the highest level, to make it easier for the goslings to get under them without burning their heads and backs. Place your hand on the heat plate, it gets very hot, it shouldn't be right on top the goslings (or ducklings or chicks) touching their back, it should be about an inch above the baby birds so they don't get burned or too hot. Since your brooder plates are so low to the ground, I doubt the goslings are using them, with the exception of the smallest birds, they are probably huddling together to keep warm, especially at night when the temperature drops.

[@gaylewatkins4685]

[@Jakem1872]

Hi Morgan good move. When I was hatching and raising chickens I kept my bantams with the chicken flock. The bantams held their own. Also the bantam hens were the best hatchers. It was only the rooster kept my bantam rooster at bay but it was not a constant fight. I know time is at a premium but I recommend to try putting the weird chickens with your main flock. Just watch then for an hour or so, either the flock will accept the weird chickens or not. If they get accepted it will be a bit easier for your management. btw That chicken stil in the hoop coop could be broody. Broody hens are loners and cluck a lot.

[@terryhenderson424]

Weigh the excess nitrogen but, do consider adding a good 12" layer of bedding material to the top if your garden beds when you put them to bed of the winter. Then depending, either scrzpung what remains off into a compost pike or tilling/ turning in come spring. For example nitrogen and pathogen levels will be higher in bird bedding but seed content will probsbly be higher in bovine bedding.

One advise on keeping the bees alive during the winter is instead setting a bowl of sugar water, just put a bowl of sugar. This is because the water freeze or get bad and can cause death of bees.

[@jasonellis7856]

I think a lower and wider design for the mobile chicken coop would be a better option for the sloping landscape to lessen the chance of a major tip over. Also adding a back support to hang the extra feed and fencing supplies would give it a bit more stability too.

[@heavysetmedia1904]

have you thought about the same material as your big winter coop? Have the wheel base and wood floor frame as is now, and instead of wood frame and plywood covering could you use aluminum and wrapping? those would cut the weight. and it would be sturdier with its center of mass so low.

[@johnj.fitzpatrick7148]

The undercarriage of the coup is a little too residential vs industrial. You may consider beefing it up with some angle iron. Your Friend Albert could tack it place with his welder. Also. You can purchase a tank with a toilet like shutoff. Place it at the top of your property and then fill everything as it flows downhill. You add 1 psi for every 27.1 drop in elevation. Just by gravity alone.
