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.

Randy looked like he was feeling his name...

[@piperleelee]

What a delight to watch the cattle romping in the field and paddock. The pigs seem to have taken a liking to you. It is so adorable when they run up to greet you.

[@Chris.starfleet]

I don't think they could care any less about Morgan. I think they just like food.

[@Angiehere-1]

It’s all about the food!

[@CrimsonAkato]

​@@Chris.starfleet Yeh his shoes are food too 😂

[@Quan.002]

These cows are really cute

[@johannebungum837]

In Norway we have a word for when cattle or other livestock are let out to pasture for the first time in spring. It’s “vårslepp” and directly translated it means “spring release”. It’s really fun to watch when cows that have been inside the barn all winter are let out again😊 🐄🐂

[@Blackadder75]

we have the same here in the Netherlands , our word translates to 'cow dance'

[@shinjineesen400]

I have seen a clip of an entire erd of cows leaping and frisking about as they were let out on fresh grass for spring. An English farm.

[@joyful_tanya]

❤❤❤

[@terrireddish2522]

It was always fun to watch the local farmer walk his big dairy heard from the barns to the fields/pastures along the main road especially in the spring as they were so full of energy and excitement he always had extra help people and more herding dogs, every now and then we'd have a cow in our front garden❤, I also used to love sit at the fences and stroke them when I was feeling depressed, that was when I was a kid, quite sad when the farmer was forced to sell when I was in my late teens, I wish it would go back to smaller local herds again rather the big overcrowded barns like a lot are doing nowadays 😢

[@technicaldifficulties368]

Horses do the same thing too

[@lynnkhosla6277]

Morgan, you've come such a long way and learned so much. For an "unlikely" farmer, you've become the Real Deal - and a writer, too! Thanks for sharing your journey, warts and all. You're a smart guy and you were brave enough to create the life you wanted.

[@bkm2797]

Lol, they were kicking up their heels with pure pleasure and excitement to be back with the grass. Piggies seem to be happy too, can't wait to see the new contraption you and your buddy Albert come up with. Thanks Morgan for the update, you always bring a smile.

[@mikki_s1100]

I love that when any cows were hesitant to leave their paddock, you assuring them was enough for them to come on out. You have an amazing bond with them!

[@anitraahrens905]

I'm so happy to see everything at GSF is green and looking well this spring. Everyone is eager to move out to fresh pasture, even with Amanda's reluctance to move out. Joey and Randy can't wait for their turn to come, too. The birds and piggies look great. It looks like everyone is welcoming the change to their surroundings. I'm looking forward to seeing spring and summer at GSF. Take care and continue to be well, Morgan.

[@lindsaysullivan2148]

Wow, Abby did so well correcting Jeremy! Gentle but firm. She's come so far! 😍

[@michelehumann811]

Glad to see the pigs are doing so well and I know the cows are happy to be in the fields

[@diane9247]

Turning out the cows, a book, an audio book, a hatching diary, new pigs, gathering eggs, the birds, the cats, the dogs... and other stuff I couldn't even catch. Oh yeah - the barn! Wow, it makes me dizzy! You say you have ADHD and I think you've found your perfect occupation, Morgan. 🤠 Everything looks gorgeous, by the way.

[@jeanmariani1496]

Randy certainly seems anxious to be with the girls, but some of that attraction may be for their surroundings: that grass seems to be very succulent. And this is his first real close exposure to their scents. I wouldn't be surprised if he rolls around in their hay and excrement.

[@Seriouslioness]

So sweet to see the cows play around and the piggies play around. They are so expressive with their gratitude unlike the birds

[@cynthiariddick8184]

I love the idea of a children's book with Toby. I'm just sitting here thinking about what it would be like with Toby celebrating the holidays in your books☺️

[@g.cosper8306]

I was hoping for a "National Cow Day" or "Toby and the Case of the ..." you know?

[@britzel71]

How adorable seeing the moo moo's all running and jumping for joy. No need to apologize for the 'voices', it's cute.

[@Noalmenclature]

The happy cow dance is easily my favourite part of spring.

[@kellyfoster8903]

I went and watched last year's hatching again and yes, you have lost a great deal of weight. Congratulations. It will help you with your farming chores and better for your health.

[@heavysetmedia1904]

spring in full effect! love to see the new life! and that momma duck!! love it.

[@nancywebb1845]

It is so cool to watch your farm progress, change, adapt, erase and start over.

[@TheXenophas]

Looking good Morgan! I've been following your channel for a while and I have to say you look like you're living the good life, you seem to have so much more energy than when you first moved! so wonderful to see someone that made a major change and is so happy, It's contagious

[@tangill747]

Everytime I hear "My buddy Alfred" I get a serotonin boost

[@jansmall72]

Cows are happy to see that grass they love it they have room to run and play

[@jennifergriffiths42]

This was wonderful! The boys were SO happy for expanded territory!! 💖💖💖💖💖

[@kristenfrosch]

I really appreciate the 4k video quality, as someone who loves to watch your videos on my TV - it's really a beautiful experience! My kids often watch your videos with me and are very excited for your book, can't wait for that! Happy Pasture Days!

[@flautalee3090]

How do you do that - communicate with your TV?❤

[@kristenfrosch]

@@flautalee3090 I bought a very long HDMI cord off of amazon and plug my computer into the screen :D There are better ways to do it I'm sure! But, my computer desk is close by, so it worked out well. :D

[@flautalee3090]

@@kristenfrosch Thank you so much for letting me know. I knew this was possible - my husband and I have a Smart TV - but did not know where to begin. I may actually have the cable you mention…somewhere. Ty!

[@kristenfrosch]

@@flautalee3090 It's such a nice thing to have set up! I've tried other methods, a bluetooth stick for my computer so the tv could connect to it, even tried putting them on the same "network" but everything was laggy and slow to load. A cord hookup is smooth and has no latency. (Possible I'm just too old school to know better methods though!) Haha :D I hope it works for you! :D

[@squorly]

Lovely to see the ladies out in the sunshine enjoying the lush grass. Pablo is out supervising.

[@jeaniLovesAnimals]

❤️ sneak peak goslings 🥰🌞 Piggies are so friendly 🐖🐖🐖 very cute..

[@vonduus]

I love your choice of music to the videos! Very expressive! And as always it is good to see all the animals being happy.

[@IbelongtoJesus.]

Yummy for the Keows 🐮🦬🐂🌱🌱🌱 🌱🌱☘️🌱☘️🌱☘️

[@rebeccashaffer5710]

Such a beautiful sight! 💖💙

[@heidipustelniak652]

Love seeing how they enjoy going out to fresh grass! Looks like the boys were happy to have more room!

[@davejenner2172]

Your channel has come of age, great animal characters great history stories very interesting.. bless you and your wife

[@krisfinley6706]

Aw Morgan, it was just the sweetest most wholesome thing when you said it brought joy to your heart to see your cows happily enjoying their grass😊 THAT brought joy to MY heart Morgan, thank you!

[@Chris.starfleet]

The best part ... one of the best parts of these videos are always ... Myyyy Buddy Alfred!!!!

[@dot_dee]

that's the cowtent we're all looking for :3

[@jamesdriscoll_tmp1515]

Have you considered putting up houses for barn swallows? They can eat a lot of flies.

[@Lonesome__Dove]

And bats. 😊

[@sarahHGM]

Good morning Morgan! You really take great care of your land and animals. Im impressed. I really wish I could farm. Im disabled so i sort of live through your videos.

[@ruby8372]

Morgan you're looking so great and happy and the farm is looking so picturesque and all the animals so happy, all your years of hard work are paying off! We're so proud ❤

[@Tommy-ev6gv]

Hi Morgon, I saw a video where they mounted a brush to a big log. The cows loved it, and it was really sturdy due to it laying on the ground.

[@Lonesome__Dove]

He does that. Attaches to a mobile coop or feeder or something

[@Winterascent]

So great to see the cattle back on green grass.

[@candacescavone7329]

We've been staying at a working cattle ranch for the last week in our motorhome, and they have carports scattered around their 2 huge pastures for shade during the summer. Made me think of you and our fuzzy kids. Also they just put on little blue tags "ear tags" for fly control. It's been interesting and and great learning experience here in NC.

[@helenwilliams7138]

Looking good Morgan! For all the negative comments, we need to give you the good.

[@Laptop46]

One thing you definitely need to consider doing for roosting birds is making sure they have their own space. The fact that they have to compete for space, food and water all while trying to hatch eggs is not good for them or the eggs.

[@eeka3109]

Was anyone else so stoked for this video

[@MissRyukkie]

Everytime I drive by my local dairy farm I see they have a similar cow shading contraption. I always say to myself "there's the happy cow mobile". 😂

[@daniel385]

Always fun to see happy animals.

[@TammyJerkChicken]

Wow the farm has grown so much! So many happy creatures 😊

[@KatBrat38]

I know I'm not the first to say it, but I'm hoping the weight loss is purposeful. Love watching the farm . Can't wait for the baby cobra chickens

[@inannaliban]

Many years ago my uncle had a farm. He put the pig pen next to the chicken yard. One day a chicken made it over the fence. It was ripped apart in minutes......Those pigs are more interested in the poultry than their food.

[@CrystalTheAnimalLover]

Amazing they ae happy to be back in the grass so cute

[@scottgremko4426]

Nice job with the funny thing with animals, refreshing to that kind of humor . Thank You Morgan 👍

[@lhmcd5538]

I’m happy if you are happy Morgan. I just wish you the very best of success with you book. I hope that goose can produce some babies. She would be sad to do all of that work and have nothing to show for it. The cows were wonderful to see frolicking as they did. It made my day. Thank you. May you all please take care and stay safe. Louisa. 👏👏👏❤❤❤🤩🤩🤩

[@mathbrown9099]

Yet another rancher/farmer who loves the stock and cares well for them. Well done. I’ll be watching you.

[@nancy12452]

Morgan, you look great! Hope you have a great Memorial Day weekend!

[@mercy92399]

You are a very creative person…and a very nice man. 🙋‍♀️

[@susanmacdonald4288]

"Birds can be so tempermental"...that's an understatement! And duck moms can be fierce, probably because they are the only one raising the ducklings, at least among the wild mallards that I see. I once saw one put the boots to a seagull because it pecked at her duckling (and not in an "I want to eat you, duckling!" sort of way, more like "get out of my way, kid" sort of way).

[@Riverbendblu]

Morgan you look amazing …. I love that how happy that farming makes you . I have been a follower of your channel for years now. Thank you for sharing your adventures with me . You are such a wonderful person in what you are doing. Also keep it up with the themed names it makes me so happy.

[@tracymacfarlan8959]

I love hearing you do the voices for your different animals !❤😊

[@TunTavernWarrior2]

Great to see you Morgan!

[@craigk.235]

That's a beautiful day! All of the animals look so happy! I hope Toby is doing well. The whole video was great.

[@kayknightshade]

You’re lookin good Mr. Gold! Hope you’re taking care of yourself as well as you take care of your farm!🫶

[@SleepoMonster]

@Gold Shaw Farm You should consider collecting what fur you can and adding it to your online store, because of the cow type you have the fur can be spun into yarn or used for needle felting or other crafts, I'm just suggesting it because it adds a little more income and who knows it might become a hit, look it up when you get a chance, thank you.

[@RakibHasan-hs1me]

I am just pumped to hear My Buddy Alfred theme.

[@kelseyquinones3294]

Maybe its just that youre not wearing winter clothes anymore, but you look slimmer. You look great!!! I love your videos and I'm happy to see you doing well

[@FeedMeSalt]

That field looks so good!

[@jillianharrisdesigne]

Love seeing Randy run amok! And I am so excited for the Toby Dog book. Looking forward to reading it with my son (9).

[@SearchfortheMeaning]

I hope you're taking good care of yourself and staying healthy my friend, you're looking quite thin these days. But no less happy and fantastic the farm is beautifully. I'm a fan maybe going on five years now. God bless🙏🎖🏅🌄

[@freedomfighter4990]

Thanks for that grass blade testing tip! It's amazing how fast your pasture gets lush & green once the ground dries out from the thaw. And I predict the Toby dog book will be HUUUGE when it drops in Sept.

[@cutepinkart]

So cool, watching them run around, my favorite video so far this season.😀😀😀

[@leahness3588]

Pastures look amazing!! And cows are so happy.❤❤ Great farmer😊

[@asutton1364]

Wow, have not watched it for a while, weight loss looks great

[@billreal76]

It's a GREAT day on the farm! I can feel your excitement!

[@ashlingofAsh7580]

These are my fav videos. When the cows get to run through lush green green grass. They are so happy.

[@ronaldlucas5360]

Good to see your cattle out to pasture.

[@marrier9999]

Suddenly, Randy has springs in his legs.

[@Lorexbg]

Thats some very happy cows !

[@zettolive5696]

My favorite Cattle update

[@desertdarlene]

Don't forget to put out the fly paper!

[@debbydsfw9866]

Love the coos! ZOOOMIES!!! GEE, Morgan, where'd the rest of you go?! Lookin' forward to your book! Yaaay! Thanks for makin' the vids

[@meenha1976]

🎉 5:39 what happened to that middle bent fence (top bar)? Couldn't have been you Morgan 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@timparker7062]

I like the names you gave the cattle; additionally, I hadn't seen you for several months, and you're looking good. As if, perhaps you lost a couple lbs., and the psychological effect of DIGGIN your scene is positively affecting your appearance. Cheers mate, bring on the funny voices!

[@percys9427]

You make farming so much fun !

[@OriginalNethead]

I can just hear Randy playing Van Halen's "Girls, GIrls, Girls"! He wants to get out and do what he was born to do - get down with the be fruitful and multiply!

[@Flowmaster925]

that ending got me crackin up, i miss how that dude talked

[@dancxjo]

I love that you name your fowl after the Pixies!

[@peneloperoberts9584]

Morgan, looking svelte young man! Well done.

[@anone2109]

I've missed the last 4 or 5 months of videos so I thought I was watching some videos from years ago. You look great and healthy dude! I can also attest to the fat melting qualities from bike riding. I dug the old road bike out of storage a month and a bit ago and, what a surprise!, cardio is healthy and good for weight loss!

[@justanotherperson584]

Randy is randy to go! Look at him kicking and jumping! I’d be excited too. Btw, you look like you’ve lost weight, good for you. Stay fit Morgan. Good job with the farm.

[@Seriouslioness]

I love seeing the piggies

[@Carbiniz3r]

I gotta say morgan, Been watching you for years and it looks like you have certainly thinned down and bulked up on your arms. Farm lifes been doing you good.

[@Terreishaa]

I just found your page & I’m so exciting to start my farm with some family farm animals to keep and love on ❤

[@Lazy_Fish_Keeper]

Roommate and I make voices for all the animals here, and the animals have entire conversations and create their own mythos. Go with it! Embrace the inner muse so she doesn't abandon you 😉

[@bellavita4237]

Morgan you are amazing. A one man doer except for occasional visits with 🎼My Friend Alfred 🎼 I skipped the news channels and clicked onto your channel. America has gone “Cray Cray” Your farm life is fun, busy and humorous. Keep on Keeping on 👌🏻 Louisiana USA🇺🇸

[@AshKay131]

Watching the cows run warms my heart 🥰

[@marine463]

The pigs have much more space than before, they look pretty happy! Love the cow mobile.

[@funky-phantom]

Random fun fact. If you hold up walkie talkies antennae to the wire you can hear the pulse. We did this when we were kids. When I found out one wire had a much louder sound I got curious. We had touched the other wires and felt a little jolt. I grabbed the loud one. Never did that again.

Audacity to show hatchlings; it’s the cutest teaser!

[@qynoi42]

So excited for the first little peep peeps of the year! Also it's an absolute joy watching the cattle frolic.

[@Lonesome__Dove]

Pigs were hungry lol . Might need to up their feed a bit.
