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.
"...and sometimes they like to hang out with Toby." And the Parks and Recs gang continues to be the best avian group in the farm.
Definitely! BFFs forever!
Plus, it's pretty stinkin' cute too...
It is cute
@@astra1653 sad they broke up :/
Not gonna lie, Lil'Barn Cat looks like she's doing great all things considered. Such a tough little kitty.
Same she so strong
Cats are generally strong
❤️ our to cat
love how ron got her own bodyguards
she reminds me of cartoons where the gang boss is a midget and they have big burly thugs that follow them around everywhere.
Hey Morgan, here's an interesting tidbit about duck and geese hybrids: while they can't mate and hybridize, shelducks _can._ They're an ancient order of anatiforms, the "missing link" between geese, swans, and ducks, and they can create mules with all three!
That's why some people swear they have a doose or guck, they say "my African goose mated with my cayuga!" or some such. Well, guess what, the African goose is not a true goose, but a shelduck. Whoever named these birds really needs to be sacked.
common names decided by the common people that work with the birds rather then by a scientist figuring out how related the birds species are
@@CalmoOmlac They're more often referred to (by some of us "common" people) as sheldrakes. Which, technically, are just the _males_ of the species! A la the erroneous interchangeability of "peacock" and "peafowl".
@@CalmoOmlac Highly unlikely...as their genus Tadorna was first introduced by zoologist _Friederich Boie_ in 1822.
Geese, Swans, and Duck are all in the same Family. This only proves micro-evolution (Wolf to Domestic Dog) not macro-evolution (Ape to Man).
Muscovy ducks are like there own thing… not a duck and not a goose. And they can breed with ducks and create mules.
3:02 -- -slowly lowers my hand to *not* ask the question about being bred with chickens-..... 😶
You can breed pheasants and chickens on the other hand tho. You end up with really wonky looking sterile creature.
I once had 5 chicken hens and one pheasant rooster living together. Chicken sat on eggs, I didnt have anything else to give her to sit, so I thought I will let her sit on those not fertilised eggs and then give her some freshly hatched chicks I bought just for this reason. Let me tell you that I was shocked when I went to exchange eggs with chicks and one egg was hatching.
But thats not to say that they wont try.
6:35 Geese: He has noticed! Abort! Abort! Pretends to eat grass.
Morgan: Now before I start talking about-
Quacken: *INTENSE QUACKING*
Giving liquid meds to a pet is never easy. My experience is to introduce the syringe into one side of the mouth, near the back teeth, where there is a natural gap and slowly push the meds in, a little at a time. This prevents choking and violent head shakes so much. Still a problem to do but this way is some easier, just a thought. Hope she gets better.
loving the extra screen time for ron swanson
A doose means something entirely different in our house 😂
Shortened version of 'doofus'?

To "drop a deuce" aka to "poop"

LOL (I snorted) mine too!!!
Jill 🤣☺️
Lil just looks like she's going to be back on the prowl in a few weeks.
Today is my 21st birthday, but this video is by far the best birthday gift ever ❤
Thanks for doing what you do, best wishes for Lil Barn Cat's recovery
Happy birthday!
I feel like saying ducks and geese are interchangeable is like saying mice and rats are they are very different. Also do you think lil barn cat would like some frozen mice pinks i know she was quite the hunter and thought she might like a treat i breed mice and rats as feed
Back then you mentioned wanting to add more livestock bit by bit into the farm. Cows are probs the default ones to go for but why not invest on goats first? They take less resources and they can easily mow down your pesky weeds for you.
The only downside with goats is they will pull up the entire plant, roots and all, when they feed.
I would recommend sheep instead for the same reasons you gave for goats
@@samsadowitz1724 Goats nibble more on the weeds and really prefer the rough leaves and branches. They are great for brush clearing and would know what to do with that weedy patch shown in the video. We were always told that it was the sheep that pull up the whole plant, but if no one is doing that irl that is great! Probably overgrazing and not doing intensive grazing, and not enough rainfall in the harsh conditions was causing the bad rap sheep got here in TX.
Your t-shirt couldn't be more epic if you tried! The words are the 100% truth. Lil looks so much better and her purrs say it all 🐈🐾🐾💖💖💖💖
wow didn’t expect to see a napoleon dynamite reference here 😂
When
Ron Swanson is just hanging with the cool kids. 😎
The tuff of hair on Toby driving me nuts I just wanted to pull it out every time I saw him. 😀
😄same, I wanted to pull that tuff out and grab a brush for a brush down.
Glad little barn cat is doing so well. Her surgery looks so good...no angry red places at all. Thanks for sharing the ducks and geese issue. Never knew that about the bill until you showed the difference and I don't know how I missed it...it's so obvious. LOL Guess I am not a very observant person. Y'all have a Blessed day. BTW I really like the little red coop.
Dude, you've managed to take this channel over 120thousand subs in a REALLY short time. That's quality of content and you being super relatable. Thanks so much for the content, and congratulations on your continued youtube success!
In some cases mules can actually have foals this happens when the mule only carys it's mums chromosomes but not it's dad's.
Seriously look it up this is not a joke.
Er...that's like immaculate conception - an egg is fertilized and the sperm didn't leave any genetic material? Mule Jesus?
Saw a mule and her foal at a county fair many many years ago. The foal was as cute as could be.
That would actually be like a surrogate mother, implanted foal... test tube baby, if it didn't have it's father's chromosomes. That was a scientific experiment to see if the mule could do it.
@@SQW0 It's not quite like how the OP described.
A mule has an odd number of chromosomes due to the parents not have the same number of pairs. IIRC horses have 64 while donkeys have 62. So on occasion if a mule is mated to a horse or donkey it can produce offspring with little if any characteristics of the grandparent not matching the non mule parent.
Could the foal breed then?
Most people don't know domesticated bunnies can not breed with wild rabbits as they're so geneticly far apart.
Unless you are in Spain, where domestic rabbits were domesticated. North American cottontails are in a different genus.
In the US maybe, but here (EU/NL) there are plenty of "wrong" colored wild bunnies that clearly mated with domesticated bunnies somebody set free for being unwanted.
I live is the US and a friend mine had two domesticated bunnies that got out and mated with wild cottontails. The babies were kind of wild so they couldn't be tamed.They let the babies go when they followed other cottontails and off they went. So they can. I do not believe rabbits can mate with hares because they are different.
I love the way the geese honk at you when you open the door. They look like they’re giving you the business. 🤣🤣
We own four ducks and I love your tips on how to take care of them👍 keep up the good work man!
Your dedication to saving lil' barn cat is heartwarming. It was a risk to your young business but you didn't even hesitate, and that just proves you're an amazing person.
And I think lil' barn cat knows it too, and is fighting hard to get better.
Nice tour of the fowl families. So nice to see Lil Barn cat is doing well and healing. Thanks for update. 😺💖🦢
She actually took that medicine so well my opinion. My cat would’ve taken my eyes out 😂😩 Best of luck to her ❤️❤️
Its crazy how Ron swanson act just like a goose like you said
Heard the piece on the Gold Shaw farm on NPR today! You should be very proud! Love your videos and your brave approach to finding meaning in life! Best Wishes!
We're gonna need frequent Lil Barn Cat updates!
I love Ron Swanson and her crew, has to be some of my favorite animals on your farm, and I hope we get to see more of them soon!
Also, Lil is doing so great!
This is why I love your channel. You come up with all these things and it is very entertaining.
Thanks for the duck & geese information. It's very interesting. Also, so happy to see lil barn cat eating.
no Update for the Baby chicken *sad noises*
and Lil Barn Cat is a real Warrior should gotten the middle Name Xena ^^
Lovely to see how Lil Barn Cat is doing. As the saying goes, time heals all wounds, and it is so obvious how much better she is doing. Long may that continue. ❤
When the geese surround you and all start honking ,it sounds like the are laughing at you. Or mocking you even....🤣😂
Oh my gosh!! Lil Barn cat is doing so amazing!! You had some terrific medical intervention! She is so strong 💪🏻 What an incredible blessing! I’m so happy for you all. ❤️❤️😉
Love your videos. You make me want to work on a farm! I know it's hard work but you're a prime example of "hard work pays off". All my respect goes to you.
So good to see her doing so well! I’m so happy for y’all!
“Oh and speaking of chickens”.. and I thought Release the Cluckin’ !! 😉😂
I enjoyed your Ducks, Chickens, Gooses and Toby very much, Just remind me the good old days in the countryside. Thank you very much.
That shirt is amazing, Lil is truly a champ!
Thanks for the LiL update, so glad She is doing better Bless You and Your Wife and all of Your menagerie and of course Toby Dog !
All I gotta say is... This is such a heart warming video....😻😻 I needed this today! Thank you Morgan and family (yes this includes all the amazing furred and feathered lovelies)...❤️
This was great. I was showing my toddler the difference in the two, since she is still learning animals and quacks at pictures of both. This was a great resource.
It was nice to see Lil eating, so glad she is improving. ❤
Aw that’s so cool that you still have Ron Swanson and her little gang! The video of you hatching them was the very first video that I watched from you, and seeing them often on your channel is always fun 😂...also awesome napoleon dinamite reference haha. And lil barn cat is doing amazing!! That purr was just adorable. Love the shirt btw 😉. And a card's on its way to you guys 😊
She’s doing great!
As a child if the 80’s, I’m So happy to see that you referenced the Wuzzles when talking about hybrids. Thank you!
Thank u thank u for sharing a warrior update! She's so much stronger and yes, we could hear her purring....what a beautiful sound!
If you cover the top of the back half of the crate with a towel, Lil will feel more comfortable. She is hurt & healing, cats like to hide when they aren't feeling well. She will not be upset at being confined until she is feeling better, because of this. You are providing plenty of food & water, so no need for her to go hunting. Also if Pablo brings you a dead mouse ( they bring gifts sometimes :) ) you might feed it to Lil for the extra protein. Suposedly, mice are the perfect meal for cats. ( Read that somewhere ). Btw - chickens Love weed seeds. Wait for the weeds in your corn patch to mature & shake the tops - full of seeds - into a bucket. Righ now, the corn is loosing the race. If you plant corn next year, try cultivating between the rows once or twice while everything is small, to give the corn a chance to beat out the weeds.
My man asking and answering the real important questions during quarentine.
glad to see lil is healing nicely!
Sorry but the look in L'll cat's eyes are "let me get back to the barn & the trees, please!" Keep on keeping on
I love how it just happens you put a new video up everyday off I get
Omg!!! 😂🤣😅
I hatched 2 pekin ducklings last night in the incubator and I’ve got them laying on my chest in the recliner and as soon as u yelled release the quacken!!!!! One of the ducklings took off and leaped off my chest out of a dead sleep... thankfully it landed on the recliner and not the floor. It was so funny! 😅
I love your videos, you've made me fall in love with ducks and now I've gotten my self a few. They are the cutest little things. Lil barn cat looks so much better, perky ears and an appetite are great signs! 😊 I watch your videos pretty much everyday and rewatch so many of them. I cant wait to have a bigger homestead so I can add geese and more ducks.
Loving that Lil Barn Cat shirt, I'm so happy she's home! Healing up safely 💓
Cats purring promotes healing. Will purr even when in pain. Not that she doesn't like the attention. ❤😻
When you got surrounded by the Geese, I couldn't help but laugh. They were debating taking you out 😂
Pablo's looking out for you, he saw them geeze gang up on you
You are so lovely and gentle with all your animals. They have a great life with you. I never knew geese eat grass. I'm new to your channel, but I'm going to subscribe and catch up. X
I have been loving you content lately! You inspired me to adopt 2 pecan ducks of my own. I just keep them as pets though and feed their eggs to the racoons!
I was in my RV at a park next to a lake in central Florida last fall, and resident ducks (domestics who I gave oat mash to, which they loved) took a liking to laying their eggs under my rig. I got to eat more than my fair share of fresh duck egg omelettes. Those are some rich yummy eggs. Lil Barn Cat is looking so good for all she has been through. I love your videos and live vicariously through them. I would love to be doing what you and Allison are doing with your farm. God blesses you abundantly. I hope you appreciate all He does for you.
Love seeing all the animals and you of course. Barn cat is looking so good.
Lol Barn Cat looks great, looks like she's feeling better!💜❤💕
She's getting great care. Keep it up Lil, and you guys!💕
No one:
RELEASE THE QUAKEN!!!
Nice Farm Bro! Greetings from 🇩🇪
Schnitzel!
Hello there!
I was honestly curious about this yesterday! What a coincidence!
I heard you mention in a previous video that you were going to get a sister for Toby. I can't wait for that. I will be much relieved once he has a canine friend/co-worker. I find it increasingly strange how invested I have become to your little world. Thanks so much for letting us in.
Oh my gosh, I love the new shirt and I love lil so much. I've been wanting to donate, but I have to wait for pay day. I'm totally getting one of those shirts now too.
Good to see Lil'Barn cat on the mend. Wishing her a quick, full recovery.
Its nice to see progress! Toby is as sweet and muddy as ever (I hope next video you give him a bath, I want to see how white his fur after a clean up) - - - - The gang of geese are all grown up and they look happy feeding on the grass , the shy baby ducklings are doing well and lil barn cat is stronger than last time! All is well!
I can never get enough goose footage
You are such a kind and caring farmer.
I am so so so happy for Lil Barn Cat's improvements!
Of all the "feeders" you use, the pink toboggan is my favorite! LOL
I had a flock of chickens, guineas, geese, ducks, turkeys, and peacocks that all got along (most of the time, once in awhile the turkeys bullied the other birds). The water birds often hung out together and the chickens got along with everyone. The pecocks and turkeys were not the most fond of each other, but if they ever got in a tussle one of the ganders would always charge in and break it up. It was a really funny dynamic to watch.
I don't know why I watch this, I have my own ducks, geese, chickens and pigs but I AM A LIVESTOCK ADDICT !
I'm going to add some crops to my pasture next year and lay straw to prevent weeds once the plants have established a bit. All my berries got overrun by weeds too 🙄 I really want to do corn, sunflowers and pumpkins for the animals. Happy lil barn cat is doing well!
I look forward to seeing Lil's progress on each video. Can't wait to see her running around coneless.
Was worried there wasnt going to be a Lil update. Please give us update on every video. So glad she is on the mend.
love your goose and ducks i will do the same when i go back to my countr philippines. you talk so nicely i do enjoy watching your vvideo your sense of humor is amazing
Lil' Barn Cat is just adorable with a really strong spirit! Good for her!
Im so happy that Lil Barn Cat is doing well!
Hooray! for Lil Barn Cat....so happy she's improving! Can't wait till she gets out of that cone!
Love the new haircut
Man, the video was great but I felt it was short such a great. Maybe because I feel emotionally invested...
I love your channel because it makes viewer feel like a part of the farm! As far as weeds in your feedlot, I would suggest growing pumpkins or some sort of squash in with the peas and corn like the “three sisters method” not only would that give you extra produce to sell in the fall for jack ‘o lanterns, or use for supplementing the diet of the flock but it acts as a ground cover to prevent weeds and raccoons apparently don’t like to step on the prickly leaves of the squash. Worth a try and I feel like it would be good video content.
So glad lil is home and ur one lucky man get to go on easter egg hunts everyday lol
I’m so happy she is getting strong every day! She truly is a fierce warrior 💞🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
GoldShaw Farm was on "Here and Now" today! Nice to be profiled on national radio.
"Crops outperform weeds" ... Morgan, stop, you're killing me!!!!! I was thinking I should plant some weeds and see if crops spontaneously appear and take over ;)
Looks like Toby finally shedded out and Lil Barn Cat is looking good.
Love seeing up dates of duckie Ron S. !!
Get well soon LIl, we love you!
This one time when I was a toddler, one of our chickens actually laid an egg right into my hand. I was so super stoked. That’s an experience I’m fully aware that very few people get to go through, especially in today’s society. Oh yeah, we also released our khaki Campbells into our enclosure today. They’re gonna be safe for the most part.
Very first thing I noticed was the Lil Barn Cat T shirt. Very nice!
Wholly 90s tribal tattoo! Watched my older cousin get one back in 97, but his artist was kind and let him put it on his upper arm.
Wow, the chicken coop is soooooo creative!
So glad Lil is doing so well💕.
How about some goats to eat the weeds? You can rent them.
Yes, some goats might be a good addition to your farm. Just check if they’re suitable for you As in if you like the milk and meat. Maybe even some grass eating pigs?
@@Judyluvs it's not just the milk and meat, when you breed them they can be high profit too
Oh yea these lawnmower goats 😆
Yes!!! Goats please!!!
Awww... Looks like Lil' misses Pablo... He should come and visit her from time to time.
So glad to see Lil barn cat doing well. Heal fast sweetie.
