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.

[@kristinfrostlazerbeams]

Your farm may be loosing money but remember you just sunk a lot of expense this year in infrastructure and vehicles and other things. Also consider it paying for peace of mind to loose money for a short while doing something you love.

[@cmel7841]

I wish all industry had this transparency, I would absolutely buy birds from you, even with the mistakes. You clearly are learning and sharing your experience. I wish puppy breeders would do this as well.

[@413Stoner]

Me too I will buy some I trying to convince my friends to drive up there to see if we could get a couple we from Springfield Massachusetts.

[@JerryB507]

I enjoy Morgan's videos and am not really knocking him, but if he were totally transparent he would say how much he's earning from KZbin and the sponsors. He hasn't stated that he's quit his "day job" so he's not put all his eggs into the youtube basket.

[@abcd1234jason]

Jerry B yea I wonder how he comes up with these figures and no way will he ever recover the costs from what he's put into the farm so far for another 20 years or more the tractor alone would need a $1000 a year in profit to recover that money over 20 years

[@lilbacon7777]

@@JerryB507 Well he’s sort of covered that in a previous video. He’s actually mentioned that farming for him isn’t actually even one of his primary sources of income. It’s his farm sitting video.

[@pocasanchez]

@@JerryB507 sure, but this video is just about the farming aspect, not all his finances combined. He's not trying to hide it, he's just talking about something else, though he did mention KZbin and sponsor money twice in this vid. We all know good youtubers make money, and they deserve to bc they're putting work in that most people aren't willing to and most of them do it for free for years before they see a penny(if they ever even do).

[@threecatsdancing]

Haven't watched the video except for the first few minutes. I'm a business accountant of 30 years so I have a suggestion. Ask your CPA/tax preparer to help confirm this idea. During your momma-goose-egg-hatching experiment you lost TONS of eggs. That experiment could be considered research and development. It could be said that the department in your business that manages the animals, the egg hatching department, "sold" the R&D department the eggs for the experiment. Find out the cost of the "sold" eggs (lost income) and maybe you can declare that as R&D expense on your taxes. That might help with the overall tax bill this year when set off against your two day job incomes. I do this kind of stuff ALL the time in the company I am the controller for. I hope this idea helps you a bit.

[@Matt-xc6sp]

It’s probably still better for him and Alison to take the standard deduction?

[@jerm6996]

Yeah depending on the scale of operations it might still be better to take the standard deduction, but this could still be something important to consider for the future as his operations scale up in terms of helping out on that tax bill! Hopefully Morgan sees this haha.

[@threecatsdancing]

@@Matt-xc6sp I'm talking business taxes, not personal taxes. The farm is a business so he has to file a business tax return. Business taxes and their deductions are calculated on a different form from personal taxes and their deductions. He and Allison can take whatever form 1040 deduction that is appropriate for their circumstances (remember, they own a home and if they have a mortgage then the interest plus property tax payments might be higher than the standard deduction). If not, then yes, standard deduction for themselves as personal deductions might be better. But the expenses (losses) incurred from R&D is declared on Schedule C or Schedule C-EZ, depending on what their CPA/tax preparer advises. I don't do business taxes but I work closely with our CPA and prepare our financial reports with a line item of R&D on all the expenses, including parts moved from inventory to experiments, that support that research and development, because it is partially deductable as business costs. This is just a suggestion for him to mention to his tax person. That was a LOT of eggs he could have sold.

[@GoldShawFarm]

That's an interesting point. I'll ask my accountant about it and see what she thinks.

[@garyf3470]

@@threecatsdancing Farm income goes on schedule F. And it’s very funky compared to a business tax return. If I recall correctly, there’s no cost basis in the eggs being hatched (the laying geese aren’t being paid a commission per egg), though there are costs for hatching and raising them. There are various other tax breaks for farming. R&D is an interesting idea to pursue, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the current effort doesn’t meet the definition. I believe it requires research that would be new for all comparable farms, not just something that’s new to you but other farmers have already done.

[@Bentriverrusher]

I listened to farmers complaining to our local politician at a town hall when I was a kid in the fifties. After a pile of sad stories he told them one of his old friends who was a farmer won the million dollar lottery. When he asked the old guy what he was going to do, the fella said, "I been a farmer all my life so I will just keep doing that till the money is all gone". Good to see things and people have not changed.

[@tammyschilling5362]

If your birds have plenty of pasture to roam on during the day, one thing you can try to reduce feed costs is not feeding them first thing in the morning. Open their houses and let them out in the morning, but don't feed them until later (say, late morning/lunch time). They will be hungry and go forage for themselves. Then you feed them later to make up the difference. Some breeds are better foragers than others, so pay attention to how much you are putting out (vs before) to see if it's actually helpful.

[@rymeyflow947]

smh dont even try braincells are missing for this famer

[@GoodPersonTestWebsite]

Good suggestion, Tammy :)

[@joeruhe8030]

Start growing garlic on the side. You've got the land and tractor, and you can sell it online super easy. It's really not very labor intensive through out the year either. Good money!

[@o0Sazie0o]

I think when you get the puppy, Toby will be super happy. I wonder how Pablo will feel? Probably won't be impressed for awhile.

[@gubjorggisladottir3525]

Infrastructure and cattle (eggs for the birds?) are not costs but investments. The new machine to hatch the eggs in, is also a investment. The birds that you are keeping to next year are also investment. Anything that will be there in 2022 is an investment, not a cost of operations. Tax vise... it is a totally different thing. You should look into the comment from Aimee Moisa. Taxing is different between Countries...

[@nancylitton390]

I have been reading some of these comments... Some seem to be good advice,some seem to express thanks,and then you have the ones I would like to ask,where they get their information? They give advice ( some suggestions, nothing wrong with that.). These people (most) have NEVER been on a farm! Ok,maybe a tour of a working farm. But they don't understand farming and the work involve. It's not just feeding animals...it's cleaning up after them and checking sure all are healthy. Thank you for sharing part of your life.

[@KenS1267]

Keeping cattle on dirt/mud/their own shit is going to cause you no end of trouble. I know you have some dream of just piling on more and more hay but cows aren't ducks or geese. Cows weigh a half ton and have relatively narrow hooves to carry all that weight and they will sink right down into that muck and their hooves will get wet and then the trouble will start. There's a reason the dairy barn had the cattle on a higher level and was built to drop the shit and other refuse down and away from the cattle. Keeping the cows on the ground level is going to at the minimum mean you will be paying a farrier to come out and fix the cows hooves, which is not cheap, or you will have downer cattle, which you cannot harvest for meat, due to infections. I know nothing about ducks and geese but cattle I do know. This is a very bad idea. You need to keep the cattle on a surface that can be mucked out.

[@andrewterry8092]

Yeah, he has no idea how much work it takes to care for cattle, I guess ignorance is bliss...

[@donnaml8776]

@@andrewterry8092 I agree, it’s like he’s refusing to listen, but it’s the cows that will pay. Messed up hooves is painful and effect the rest of the health of the cow. 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@donnaml8776]

I agree! Being stubborn won’t help the cows.

[@lauramarschmallow2922]

I think he's moving way too fast when he will really be adding cows in foreseable future. I think he still has towork out first

[@TheKruxed]

I don't know anything about all of that, but the loss of Calves or the illness of cows would be a larger phycological impact both to him and this channel than the birds so its risky for more than financial reasons since he has made some obvious common sense mistakes in the past. I'd assume with that weather they get up there they'd be stuck in that barn for months, once the mistake of their flooring is done you won't be changing it till spring. Having said that, the guys not a complete idiot, I'm sure he'll be asking local guys and experienced people online about everything long before dedicating himself to that huge decision.

[@martinwyke]

'mostly tree sales', but we don't see that covered much on the channel. Trees might not be cute and fluffy but they are still cool.

[@yeah_i_likeCartoons]

Sad to hear the farm isn’t doing as well financially but I’m glad you’re doing okay. I’ll keep doing what I can do to help by watching, commenting, and sharing! 😁

[@stephenriley9084]

Morgan, Cows. For what it's worth. Have your vet review the area you propose to house your cattle in overwinter before they arrive. Space per cow for eating and lying down is important. It is easy for them to get stressed inside. Ventilation paramount and hard floors and poop removal essential. There will be a lot of slurry. You need to get it out and put it somewhere. The layout of your existing barn should be signalling to you how this is done. You would be a fool to work against the principles in plain sight and what you already know about this building, which is purpose built. You will need to perform a visual inspection of each cow every day when they are inside to check they are OK. Pass amongst them regularly. If you don't think you will be 100% ready this year. Do it next year. Once you pay yourself a wage from the farm, you will do well to break even each year. If you start paying yourself out of the farm you will have succeeded. Be lucky. Be smart. Regards Stephen.

Always good to reconsider what you do. This will not change because things will change for you good for you for considering alternatives

[@MrYoonKim]

Hey Morgan, Love the show I've been following for a while now. As a business owner myself, one thing I feel you're doing is spreading yourself to wide. You're not being patient enough to play the long game. You're doing decent within your core business but expanding rapidly horizontally and not vertically mastering. Best case scenario is everything progresses slowly simultaneously, worst case you start to hurt your core business. Then again, I'm just an admirer. I'll continue to observe your journey. Yoon.

[@writethisthat3613]

I had no idea I liked to watch baby farm animals until I stumbled across your channel.

[@drbethekoch6295]

Thinking about my own experiences with cattle-I wasn’t raised on a farm and so I had no idea that the “hay” I was feeding my animals had zero nutrition, I thought all hay was the same. Boy did I need an education about what to feed and how much. Also, don’t try to give a cow a vaccination without a head gate and chute! And don’t forget to put lights in the barn, animals don’t like to go into a dark shadowy place. Just in case you’ve never heard any of this, but you probably already know this stuff-I learned it the hard way!

[@yakacm]

When Morgan said this was the gosling which was attacked by the momma, and then cut away to him by the goose sheds, was I the only one who though he was going to show the wee gosling getting whacked the the momma goose? I was sitting there for about 5 minutes before I realised he wasn't going to show it, lol.

[@cherylreuter4008]

Nope…. I was thinking the same thing 🤪

[@kristineteall368]

I was too, but glad he didn't go there. That was a little hard to watch. 😬

[@kc4941]

Yay! Finally an update on the natural hatched baby gosling and the mom! Morgan, I've noticed a continuity issue recently with the stories. Since I watch every video and drop everything as soon as they are out, I greatly anticipate updates to your compelling stories. We never got to see how the baby geese integrated with the adults at the beginning. Maybe there was nothing to see? If you start a story or leave a cliffhanger, please have some follow up in the next video or when it can be expected. These stories are the highlight of my day!

[@djskabzhxnsoz]

i grew up on a farm in northern vermont and i think you could benefit a lot from the experience and knowledge of other local farmers. i recommend going to the champlain valley fair when it happens and talking to the farmers who show their poultry and livestock there. people are very friendly so i'm sure you could get many questions answered. i also think it would be good to see the cattle on display there (some of the best kept cows in the world IMO) as research for your future cattle endeavors!

[@79Gravity]

there is little money in small scale to be had, even the good years, if you want to make money.. then build it big scale, you have your canvas :)

[@thijsjong]

@Nitro Martini No there are scale advantages. Most important is demand for your product. Some overhead costs can be a constant it does not go up when you scale up. He has to analyse variable costs compared to output. Lack of demand can be a problem for scal8ng up especially if you have a niche. He is now doing long term investments like fencing walls stalls. You have to cover the costs before you have to replace repair and maintaince all that. He knows how to make a spreadsheet.

[@caladr9367]

He would need thousands of ducks to make any serious money, looks like expanding the tree nursery is the best bet for good profits but it’ll take a few years. 1000 trees per year x $100 each = $100k with minimal input costs

[@Zinger3030]

I read this after thinking it. You can't go 1/16th in and expect a return. Kiko and Sanaan goats would make him a killing with the space that he has. Birds are low margin.

[@ShelleyDanielle]

I was totally expecting he'd just get a microchip activated dog and cat door on the dog/cat house to keep the ducks out, not build a whole fence around it. lol

[@charlottemajewski5992]

Your finance plan for the cattle is very smart. This way even if you take a loss the first year you wont have to worry about not being able to.make payments or even lose your farm. All the advance prep and planning and not being in a rush should serve you well.

I have a thought on your hatching rate improvement.. what if each egg needs more space around it to properly develop? Most incubators, although they have the space for a bunch of larger eggs.. may not actually circulate enough properly humidified air around a packed machine. I'm very excited about ducklings coming.

That successful goose mom is a keeper for sure. If she has a female who does the same you will have way more geese

[@Duck_Keeper]

As you prepare for the cattle and butchering of those cattle you need to also think about the who will be doing processing part. In my area the smaller USDA inspected processors are backed up 6-8 months or more because of recent shut downs. You need to be lining that up now to ensure you have your ducks in a row (see what I did there) when it comes time to butcher. Locals here are having to feed their cattle well beyond the profitability point because of the extended wait time.

[@magic.marmot]

I grew up on a goat farm with a herd of about 25 head of dairy goats (plus 1 billy) with a barn that held way more alfalfa than the herd could eat in a winter. We raised 3 calves for beef as a side venture. Well, those haybags ate the whole barn and then some, we had to buy feed to get them thru the winter. There was a pretty big payoff at the end, but it didn't cover all the costs. I'd say start small and try to winter over a pair of calves and see if you can manage to keep winter feed costs down... Or once you get your beef jerky recipe finalized. see if the jerky sector of your business plan is viable by purchasing a steer at the auction, learn how to butcher it, and sell the beef jerky. Wish you the best of luck on expanding Gold Shaw farms!

It's amazing that the teen geese look like adults now, complete with their proper adult colors. Like, has so much time passed already xDD?? I thought it's just been a few weeks and they still have their gosling colors. I think definitely need to fix that incubator or at least change some parts of the system. I really think you stuffed too many goose eggs into that incubator that not everyone was covered with the appropriate heat. You said you'd lose money from the goose operation but Im guessing maybe the other operations like the ducks and possible cattle can help cover it and you get more profit hopefully 'u'/ ?

All the animals on my Grandparents' 300 acre farm were never killed for food. Grandparents were vegetarians and all the animals served a purpose: goats-clearing land, sheep-sheared for wool (grandma made/spun her own wool thread and she also sheared them herself), chickens, geese, ducks were used to sell eggs all around the area, feathers gathered and summers we spent there we had chores of washing/drying feathers for feather blankets, beds, pillows. Cows were used to milk (3 times a day by hand) for cheeses, butters, buttermilk, creams. They did have a few pigs and the piglets were sold. They had acres and acres of crops they also sold and we canned and also sold extra canned foods. They also sold fields of hay.
