Wow returning to this video after watching your newest Day in the Life really puts into perspective all the hard work you've put into the farm over the years. It's been great coming along for the ride- thank you so much for sharing this journey with us.
We have an area farmer who has planted several acres of sunflowers. They are so beautiful. My late husband used to sing that same tune when he went to the dump.
Ha!! My Dad & I also sang that song every Saturday on dump runs. I was about 7-8 years old. I guess it's the American accompaniment tune for trips to the transfer/landfill!
I retired two years ago but I still have a small farm. being a farmer and my family are the most enjoyable things in my life I think you found your calling. I can see you enjoy your days
I just found this one and it's a most beautiful lovely slice of someone else's life. I wish every day I had the means to get set up like that away from high rents and city life. Stable employment, adequate earnings, and high land and house prices are the barrier.
Wow! That was awesome! Your farm’s beautiful, and I love where you put the cameras to make everything as compelling as possible. The slo-mo shot of you driving through the tall grass was magical! Thanks for helping me start my morning! Best.
You have that sense of humour and natural way of knowing when/how to be creative with your camera shots that makes even a “day in the life” video very entertaining.
@@lorineidtinytoadplot744 they are good at that! They make constant noise and it's shrill. I don't hate my neighbors that much, 2-3 quackers are fine for me. Guineas and geese need to be on an isolated farm. I use 7 dust Spring and Fall on the yard area the animals use to keep fleas and ticks down to a minimum.
@@markthompson7961 Don't get me wrong, I don't hate my neighbors. If he was on fire I would hose him off. I find his antics amusing, riding his dirt bike along the tree line to TRY to scare the horses. he finally figured out that if they 'can't' see him its way scarier. so now he hides in the bushes and bangs on trash cans around 5:30 ish am. 'I've taken to recording him now.' This all started because my dog shit on his lawn & pulled the foam out of his wife's riding helmet, I picked up the shit and offered to pay for the helmet. this happened 5 years ago when my dog was a puppy and it only happened once. They have money & live in a log home out in the country, drives a huge truck, with not a scratch on it and he's only about 5' 7" lol he's the safety manager at work with a safety vest and hard had that never gets dirty / hair gelled up all perfect heading to work in his shinny truck. Nope I don't hate him, it's hilarious 😂🐱🏍
Goose morning calistechnics. The hop-and-flap. The rampant quackery never ceases to amuse me. And the pollen puff sequence was very relaxing. Keeping the ticks doesn't hurt, since you can pass them over for a lab test if you start showing symptoms. At that point, though, I guess it's more an act of vengeance combined with community service rather than actual relief.
@@horseblinderson4747 What negative impact do minks bring? I know they used to export their pelts to Europe, but that sort of haute couture is of a bygone era. I was thinking red foxes might be lurking around in the wee AM hours looking for easy pickings, but he obviously knows about thieving pests and then has cats to keep rats in check. My very own green acre with fish pond would be a dream come true. Then we should all refuse property taxes by mass ignoring the dumb IRS.
You two will need to do a farmHOUSE tour if you haven’t yet...I’m obsessed with old houses & yours looks gorgeous!! Thanks for the wonderfully entertaining & educational channel! Love from Montana!
Morgan, thank you for sharing your brave journey with us on your farm. It gave me comfort at this end of the day from my hectic corporate life. Keep up the the good work and all the best.
Great video! And I want to tell you that seriously my mom would always sing that exact same song every time we went to the dump🤣 so I was pretty enthused to hear your rendition. Silly little memories are the best.
160 acres (if I understood well) is a big land. Until you figure out your ultimate plan for your farm you could let out parts for people that want to grow animal food and you could get paid by their products so you could save on that.
The grass pollen was beautiful and I was very excited to see, enjoy and not react to it 😁 😁 😁 😁 Thanks for sharing and I have really enjoyed watching your video
Our Guinea's have been let out to free range for about a week and a half/ 2 weeks now, and I'm not joking we already have noticed fewer ticks by the barn and house where the Guinea's spend the most time. We have 8 and they are doing wonders.
Watching you drive thru and kick up all that pollen got me sneezing, hence I have a cab on my tractor. As far as ticks go, I use Sawyer Premium Lotion Insect Repellent with 20% Picaridin which has worked great. No ticks this year, no mosquitoes bites, or gnat issues. I know as we work on claiming back the farm, concerned with the ticks and such that led me to the Picaridin. Look forward to more great videos.
What you need to end the tick problem is a good flock of guinea fowl ... they are infallible against ticks, they give a lot of charm to your farm since they are beautiful birds and they are also a culinary delicacy.
I'm kind of obsessed with your bright yellow doors!! Thanks barn cats for breakfast, lol! I love how you said Good Morning to the geeslings! jump around, jump jump jump around!! I was waiting for that song to play! I love how the quacken have their own little trail. Watching you cut that grass down was very satisfying! tubby keister. haha!! Collection of ticks, now you shared your weird secret with us all Morgan!! You did all that before 1pm?! Brattleboro, We love that town!!! I think I may need to move to MA, because those people dance moves at 25:02 are just like mine!! That was quite the venue and interesting music your cousin plays!
Thank you for explaining why your geese don't fly away. I always trying to figure out why they didn't fly away. I can''t believe how big the ducklings are. It's amazing that they grow so fast. I would keep the container of ticks just so I could see how many tickets I pick up each season. Curious to see how many you accumulate.Really enjoyed watching your routine for the day. Always great videos.
Today's my Brothers Birthday and his name is George. Farming is cool..! I can't wait to bring him and my family to my new home up North. Farming is so natural..! Peace :)
What does it matter what other people might think? Is it really 'gross'? It's life. It's your life. Save whatever records you like of your journey; good, sad, bad or funny and even stuff that makes others squirm. ;-) LOL I'm talking about the Ticks In The Tin. LOL.
Morgan your minions are very noisy. Oh I love watching the ducks waddle. Bakers love the eggs of ducks for baking. I live in Connecticut and of course we are very south of y’all, but I was born in Georgia. 🇺🇸
it's probably a smart idea to keep those ticks like you do. most people have no idea what tick has bit them when they start having issues due to a deer tick.
12:17 😂 man!! i like how natural you're and hardworking, obviously you're really doing it for passion and you committ to carry the responsibility as it is, greetings to you and your family 💪💪
That was a fun one! I really enjoyed the wave to passing neighbor while driving to the dump to the dump to the dump dump dump. Here in the west, one lifts only the index finger, preferably lifted with some apathy. If you throw a full four-finger wave out west, people get on edge! 😂😂😂
Used a similar Sythe in my first job on a fruit farm to cut back all the brambles atbthe end of the season. It will go through an inch thick stem nicely. Lighter, quiter, longer reach and just as fast as a bushwhaker.
you need a small trailer to pull an IBC tote with water, instead of buckets. For insect repellent, I use UltraShield Green horse spray. Uses essential oils, no chemicals.
Wow, I know we’ve all been there, road rage head, .....such a weird phenomenon, and it does take your mind over...I bet today, every time you get remotely close to experiencing it...you remember that day...🌈 You have a wonderful knack for storytelling...
Being the victim of uncountable electric fences myself, I laughed at you getting chocked ;-) Instead of touching the fence directly with your finger, touch the fence with the tip of a grass straw then slowly move it closer, until you can just feel the shock.
I grew up in Ct. I miss that 'corner' of the country!!! You are so blessed! You might want to harvest hardwood at least for a year or two as help in start up costs.....i am not a business woman so i dont know but...i do make furniture and noone does wood like New England.
New to your channel, just catching up. I saw earlier videos and said man thats a lot of water... and now i am enjoying the idea of moving to tn, where ill be the "farmer" on side of mtn, so no cattle, maybe goats. But now im nervous that my luck will be allergic to duck eggs. But very much a duck pond and place to call home with good internet... so thanks for this. I only question the smell... i hate chicken houses, pig houses, and elephants.
Love the vids. I used to check the electric nets by hand too, but then I splurged and got a touch-free electronic tester. $15 for peace of mind with less pain. For a real kick touch the fence barefoot on wet grass.

That slo-mo of the grass pollen is SO COOL!! Thanks for that.
It was absolutely beautiful!!!
Yes, unexpected nd enjoyed it very much
I felt like sneezing just by looking at it XD
Anyone else find this in your reccomendations and now your obsessed and on a binge watch of farm videos?
You are such a humble person. You have such great love for your animals, your property and wildlife. Keep up the hard work and great videos!
I am glad as a farmer you can find it in you to care for this cat and get her fixed up. I hope she will be better soon.

Pretty sure that is the "I'm on my to the dump song" for the ones that love the dump!
@greenlife cleaning it’s not cheap at all why do you keep saying that
I love how you trained your Ducks & Geese to do what you want them to do. Great Job.
I retired two years ago but I still have a small farm. being a farmer and my family are the most enjoyable things in my life I think you found your calling. I can see you enjoy your days
It's always fun to get to see a day in someone else's life!

Throw a few Guineas in the mix, they love to eat ticks and are cheap insurance against them.
I'm thinking about getting Guineas to annoy the neighbors ;)

@@lorineidtinytoadplot744 in that case I recommend 10 geese and 10 guinea plus a jackass in a strip by his property.
@@markthompson7961 😂🤣😂🤣
I love those two white ducks an I love watching them walk . Love your videos so much.
Watching in 2021 and amazed by how much baby Morgan has grown ;)
I love this channel! As duck and geese owner it brings me the nostalgia of knowing what people do as duck owners
You need guineas, I’ve started keeping them and tick numbers are going down, also their eggs and meat is good.
Guinea pigs? Or a duck breed called guinea?
Guinea fowl :)

Ha ha ha
Cream of tick soup.
Flashes of the grim reaper. The grass pollen was beautiful...but made me want to sneeze. You had a busy day! Lots of lovely blessings :)
Thanks, Dolly!
A small pond would be nice for the ducks and geese too. You have lots of room and they'd be happier.
Just make sure you don't attract mink if they're in your area.
@@horseblinderson4747 What negative impact do minks bring? I know they used to export their pelts to Europe, but that sort of haute couture is of a bygone era.

@@Worldofourown2024 minks have attacked his ducks before killing and injuring a few.
What a lovely slice of America. Watching this from the city is like having the best dream.
You two will need to do a farmHOUSE tour if you haven’t yet...I’m obsessed with old houses & yours looks gorgeous!! Thanks for the wonderfully entertaining & educational channel! Love from Montana!
I think my favorite moment is "You're so graceful" when the duck tripped.
21:29 love it - can't stop watching it. My kids loved it too.
Love the geese. I personally have had up to 50 in the past 10 years. They are amazing!
I just subscribed saw you on lumnah acres. You are now one of my new favorites. Love your channel.
Morgan, thank you for sharing your brave journey with us on your farm. It gave me comfort at this end of the day from my hectic corporate life. Keep up the the good work and all the best.
Great video! And I want to tell you that seriously my mom would always sing that exact same song every time we went to the dump🤣 so I was pretty enthused to hear your rendition. Silly little memories are the best.
That’s funny. My dad used to sing it when we would go to dump back in the day.
Really lovely clips and the dry humorous is excellent.
I really enjoyed seeing the inside of your house. Looked much better than I expected with all the wood floors, everything looked in good shape.
The grass pollen shot was AMAZING!!
i like how u operate and love that you letting the grass go and use u're zeis instead of machinery
Love the music to the pollen bursts.
I like the fact that u pond dry’s up fresh water that u don’t have to worry about turning over
Hi..... Morgan, Gold Shaw Farm, thank you for sharing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 🎥👍👍👍
160 acres (if I understood well) is a big land. Until you figure out your ultimate plan for your farm you could let out parts for people that want to grow animal food and you could get paid by their products so you could save on that.
Bookmark Monaco I’m sure a significant part is wooded as is customary
@@4philipp even better, charge them nothing the first season and a lower rate the second season if they are clearing the area they rent
2 birds 1 stone
Loved the New England views, originally from Massachusetts, now living in Florida.
We love you man!!! Your editing skills are top notch!! Keep up the good work!
Thank you!
The grass pollen was beautiful and I was very excited to see, enjoy and not react to it 😁 😁 😁 😁
Thanks for sharing and I have really enjoyed watching your video
I really enjoyed the drive to the dump! Getting to see the area near your farm, neighborhood!
Our Guinea's have been let out to free range for about a week and a half/ 2 weeks now, and I'm not joking we already have noticed fewer ticks by the barn and house where the Guinea's spend the most time. We have 8 and they are doing wonders.
Are they particularly vulnerable to predators, being that they are so small?

Hello from Australia. I’m enjoying sharing your daily routine. All the best for your future!
The farm has changed so much!!!
You're so great to your animals ❤️😍
Love your channel because of all the geese and ducks. Toby is great too!
I love ducks so much 😍 i have four khaki Campbells and they bring me so much joy
What you need to end the tick problem is a good flock of guinea fowl ... they are infallible against ticks, they give a lot of charm to your farm since they are beautiful birds and they are also a culinary delicacy.
I've seen the program where they repurpose barnwood for building material. Enjoyed the day in life. Thanks for sharing.
You should up you Ducks to 30 females in the spring. So you will produce atleast 2 and a half dozen eggs a day
love the grass slo-mo

Thanks for your video. It was fun & informative. Geee, the NOISE! Loved it. Art
You were headed significantly south from town, so I bet you beat the rain. Yes, guineas take little care and they eat ticks.
this is by far my fav vlog
Morgan your minions are very noisy. Oh I love watching the ducks waddle. Bakers love the eggs of ducks for baking. I live in Connecticut and of course we are very south of y’all, but I was born in Georgia. 🇺🇸
That was a cool shot driving through the grass!
I'm coming back to this later with a bowl of popcorn to read all the comments about your shirt. Satire is lost on people now a days.
Ha ha ha. As if a libertarian like myself would ever...
Can’t believe the number of negative shirt comments!! Appears that irony/sarcasm/punk rock t-shirt joke is lost on many!
@@GoldShawFarm libertarian for life!
Love the videos man , very educational for me and inspiring ,my goal is to one day have a good spread of land like yours . Wish you the best !
Thank you! Good luck making steps towards your goal.
it's probably a smart idea to keep those ticks like you do. most people have no idea what tick has bit them when they start having issues due to a deer tick.

First time watching your videos, I think I watch them again interesting thank you
Awesome! Glad you’re enjoying them.
The awesome driving through the grass slo-mo reminded me why I can't do anything like farming... My stupid allergies.
*giggling* at the Go-Go-Gadget reference. =D
Very particular kind of music. Love your vids bro. Keep up the hard work !!!

Ha...in New England, the single finger wave gets an entirely different response.
😂😂😂
I set up a perimeter fence off my 12 joule Gallagher, fencer.
I ran my hot wire off that.
I never had any luck with solar.
I soak all my outdoor clothing in permethrin to protect from ticks. Get the concentrated stuff and dilute yourself. Love your channel!
Used a similar Sythe in my first job on a fruit farm to cut back all the brambles atbthe end of the season. It will go through an inch thick stem nicely. Lighter, quiter, longer reach and just as fast as a bushwhaker.
Loved the scything music so much
Wow! Look at the size of the barn!
kia ora very therapeutic watching the hand power love watching amazing videography
Good Morning! LOL I Love doing day in life vids. Really a great tool to look back on.
Great letter Michael, I’ve seen that TV Show 👍👍 Nice video as well...Day In The Life vids, always a great reality check. 😉👍
a small water tank trailer to pull behind your ranger would be handy. love the channel keep up the hard work
Thank you!

Just showing up from Lumnah modern homesteader, got caught up in your videos and binge watch your channel.
Roses and unicorn farts, I like it.
Wow, I know we’ve all been there, road rage head, .....such a weird phenomenon, and it does take your mind over...I bet today, every time you get remotely close to experiencing it...you remember that day...🌈
You have a wonderful knack for storytelling...
Here from Lumnah Acres. Love the quackers..
They all have so much to say
We feed our muscovy ducks a small amount of feed but they mostly forage saves a lot on the feed bill.
Being the victim of uncountable electric fences myself, I laughed at you getting chocked ;-)
Instead of touching the fence directly with your finger, touch the fence with the tip of a grass straw then slowly move it closer, until you can just feel the shock.
That’s a good suggestion! I’ll have to try that.
"What are you two doing in here?" I lost it.
I grew up in Ct. I miss that 'corner' of the country!!! You are so blessed! You might want to harvest hardwood at least for a year or two as help in start up costs.....i am not a business woman so i dont know but...i do make furniture and noone does wood like New England.
Enjoyed video this morning!
What a beautiful area!
Good morning!! That sandwich looked delish!
This was a great video! I really enjoyed it.
You could use the coop tent for rainwater collection. It is not a huge amount but at least it is lack of chlorine.
Wow u work hard on them thats cool task to do evry day n wake up to feed ducklings 😊😊😊
New to your channel, just catching up. I saw earlier videos and said man thats a lot of water... and now i am enjoying the idea of moving to tn, where ill be the "farmer" on side of mtn, so no cattle, maybe goats. But now im nervous that my luck will be allergic to duck eggs. But very much a duck pond and place to call home with good internet... so thanks for this. I only question the smell... i hate chicken houses, pig houses, and elephants.
Hey Morgan , you have a lot of buckets but....your nicest bucket is this one here 23:48 😉
Love the vids. I used to check the electric nets by hand too, but then I splurged and got a touch-free electronic tester. $15 for peace of mind with less pain. For a real kick touch the fence barefoot on wet grass.
Just reading that last sentence made jolt.
I know many Mikes though probably not your letter writer. But, I am also in Alabama...Mobile. Great show. Good work.
i live in barton, vt and its v strange and awesome to see the local job lots in a youtube video
come to crystal lake! :D
Howdy, neighbor!
