As a former wildlife rescue volunteer I can only tell all followers: If you can afford it, please donate, because the costs for veterinarian bills, special food like insects for the birds, the building of the outdoor enclosures and many other costs are so high and it is hard to get all the money needed. I was active for 28 years, but for health and financial problems I couldn't continue my work. Wildlife rescuers are by far too few people. So please, dear readers, if you can support him with donations, please do it. You are saving lives by helping to cover all the bills.
I've been watching this channel for s very long time. Since Albert actually. Whenever I'm feeling disappointed with humanity, I watch him and it reminds me that there are still good people in the world. People that care and do their best to help. When my heart hurts, I can find some healing here. Thank you for what you do for the animals.
I'ma Survivor Sanctuary's a great place to watch to. They generally keep anything too controversial out of the videos. It's pretty much just fun & animals. The whole Morrow clan is in it now too. So multiple channels to watch if you want. As they say it's I'ma Survivor Sanctuary Because we're all survivors of something. Also they post a lot of vlogs.
What a great video. It is so nice to see that all of the animals we were introduced to are doing well. And I love to hear Alberts little beeps at the end of every video. There is no way we will forget about him. Keep on doing what you do Alwyn!
@@AChickCalledAlbert I'm pretty sure the beeps can be heard in one of Alberts videos. As someone who hatched and raised quails (and chickens) myself, I recognize things like this ;) And for me, the squeak of a newly hatched chick is one of the most beautiful sounds in the world. It touches my heart every time I hear it.
@@AChickCalledAlbert I have been a subscriber for many years now. I am one of those people that love your content but can’t afford to donate to you because I am disabled and have been on government financial aid to survive. Two mornings ago my beloved Pionus parrot I’ve had for 32 years passed away. I’ve had him since he was a baby and I was only 16 years old. I am now 47 years old, and it’s really hard to remember what life was like before him… 70% of my life has been with him. I love all your videos that show the miracle of birth/hatching and early development with birds, but I was wondering… You usually don’t show/share much of the grieving process when you lose one of the animals under your care… How do you deal with the guilt of feeling like you could have done more? That’s all I feel right now and I just don’t know how to process that. I can’t even decide what I want to do with his beautiful body… He’s currently in his travel carrier cage that I rushed him to the veterinarian in, and it is on my bed with me sleeping next to it. Once in a while I still pet him even though I know his little “soul“ is not in there anymore… I just don’t know how to move forward, when it wasn’t as difficult with my three beloved dogs that also ripped a hole out of my heart when they passed away… I guess this is just different because he was my mate and I was his in a way that is different with dogs.
Gorgeous gorgeous film footage of you running with the swan in your arms, especially as the swan stretches out that beautiful elegant neck! You are a Guardian of precious animals, and I am happy to be a Guardian in support of the extraordinary work you do! Thank you, Alwyn!
If I went genuinely so broke I would have become a member of this channel ages ago because I love the content and I am really proud of what you do to save animals!
The membership is really meant for those who can easily miss it; I know (and read here today) many more would love to join, but I totally get it if you can’t and appreciate your support equally out here, be it through your warm comments, watching the ads that sometimes may pop up or liking and watching my videos until the end for the algorithm. Btw, it also seems to help if you watch a video and then look it up again some time later. Anyway, thanks for the many warm reactions today and for your support even if only by watching and enjoying our videos. Peep!
I agree. I was a member for a little while when I had enough to spare. But I had to quit because I didn't have the money to give anymore. Like you, I would again now if I could. I hope to again someday. In the meantime, we can try to do the things that Alwyn said here will help. ❤️
All of the enclosures look so wonderfully taken care of; clean with everything each animal needs. Plus you take in more critters quite often, it seems. Gosh, how do you have the energy? Thank you so much for putting such kindness and care into everything you do!
I would love to join your channel but the pennies are just too tight at the moment. I think you're one of the most amazing people I've ever encountered either in RL or the internet. Thank you for making a difference, as always.

Something else really beautiful that I've noticed about this channel. When Alwyn answers a comment he is always so kind and polite and respectful. Even when the comment he is responding to isn't. I have never seen Alwyn to be defensive or rude in any way. I really respect him for that. And it makes this channel that much nicer to be a small part of. (As a viewer) 😊
You know how truly brave a man is when he's catching a swan in the middle of the road 😎 It was a great thing that the swan didn't have any little peepers nearby and it was just lost! Also, all the animals at home are so cute when running towards you when they see you there 😊💕
Congratulations on 3 million! I’ve been a subscriber for who knows how long. I’m glad to see the sanctuary growing as your love for all animals also grows. You truly inspire me.
There are those of us that would love to join your club but are unable due to financial reasons so I want to thank you for putting up the videos you do on TH-cam. I really love your channel. It's my favorite.
Congratulations on hitting 3 mil!! I love this channel so much and I wanna be like this when I'm older!! Please keep helping these animals ❤️ if I could thank you with more money I would
It's wonderful to see animals from previous stories here in the sanctuary thriving and enjoying the best life. Thank you for everything you do. I'm so proud to be a member of ACCA! Wishing you, your family, team ACCA, and your sanctuary a warm, joyous festive season!
You running along with the Swan in your arms was amazing - like the bird knew and felt comfortable with the rhythm of the pace - like just before take-off for flight. I dont doubt that the Swan was heavy - I'm sure chasing winged creatures makes you very fit 👍👍
I've watched you for YEARS and I have never heard your voice until now, for some reason. I have to say, I find it very calming and very interesting to listen to! I always found accents calming and relaxing for me.
Aww you are always such a sweetheart and you can see all the animals love and trust for you ❤️🌹 thank you for being you and sharing your journey with us. I wish I could afford to become a member, unfortunately I’m not in a financial place to do it . . . . So I do the next best thing I can, I watch all the ads and all the way through the video plus I rewatch on the regular lol simply because it makes me happy 🥰
I wish I could see those special vids and support you but I'm super poor and have nothing extra to give😔 you are an earth angel and thanks to everyone that does help!✌
First finding this channel I had the same thought, but now I got a job and earn stuff and I can give what I can, three, four years later? Also a testament to how things can get better in one's personal life :))
@@anyascelticcreations your name implies some interesting artwork.....may you have customers climbing over each other to buy your wares!! Keep spreading the love🤗
I've only just come across your videos and I am so glad I did! You are a genuinely beautiful human and I appreciate you sharing your passion with us all. You are so inspiring and it brings me joy to see what you do. I also appreciate these videos where we get to see and hear you more. Thank you for what you do and who you are.
I was just scrolling through my TH-cam and I saw the story about the tiniest egg ever. And I could not help myself I just had to look at it, as I am an animal lover have been my entire 60 years on this planet. It was so precious and it made me smile and made my heart warm. Keep doing what you are doing and your brother also. Much thanks from myself and from all the animals out there that you have helped and that you will help. Tracy USA Boise Idaho
Congratulations on the 3 million mark!!! What wonderful sanctuary you have going already. It was lovely to meet your brother and hear a little background about your lives. I wish I could be a member again, but I can't right now. I hope to again when I can count on being able to. And finally, how incredible that a wild swan allowed you to catch him and run with him in your arms. He must have known that you were there to help. Thank you for doing what you do. 🙏
It always makes me so happy to see you doing so much for these animals. Just a couple months ago, one of my older pet chickens, Rocky, passed away from unknown causes. I was completely heartbroken, as I had spent the last few months of her life trying to figure out what was killing her. Even the avian vets, who we spent an hour driving out and spent a good amount of money to assess her, did not have a clear answer. I did not think I had more room in my heart left for another bird, but shortly after Rocky died, I went to a horse rescue, and found this sweet little chick that only seemed to be about a month or two old. The lady that runs the rescue, Remedy Rescue Ranch, was so kind to let me adopt her after a few visits. She is now the newest member of the flock, and is the sweetest, cutest little pullet since Levi (the previous baby of the flock). I named her Zelda, and a part of me thinks a little bit of Rocky’s soul lives in her. I don’t think I would be as loving of an animal person today if it weren’t for your videos. Thank you for changing these animals’ worlds, and thank you for sharing these amazing rescues with us 💙💙💙
I've been sharing my home with budgies for the past 8yrs, right now 3 of them are rescues. Whenever one of them is sick, or having a hard time, or passes away, I tend to get very emotional, to the point where I'm overwhelmed, but watching Alwyn's videos reminds me to be brave and calm, and to not get stuck in sadness when I lose a bird, b/c it's part of life and at least I was able to give them a loving home whilst they were here. I've found a lot of comfort and encouragement from his videos. I'm glad you've found the same :)
I'm so happy to see more of your sanctuary as I was very curious about it. I've wanted to support you through Patreon for as long as I've known your channel but that is not possible for me at the moment. Your videos bring me so much joy, more than you know. You inspired me to find work in a wildlife rescue center and now I know I want to do that every day of my life. Thank you so much ❤
I am so happy and proud of you💗! You're one of the main reason why I decided to take vet med. Your kindness and love for animals are contagious. Would love to meet you someday. You will always be one of my heroes💗.
There are those who like to shine in Dubai, in luxury cars with gold watches, and those who know what is essential in life, love, respect and sharing with the animals that show us the way. The beautiful things are the simplest things. This is what would save us in this world if there were more of us like this man.
You are loved and appreciated globally! This is your natural borne gift and purpose your job that is a pleasure a passion a calling the things you do regardless of sacrafice or personal heartache unselfishly to benefit a living creature that cannot help themselves and can only benefit by your skilled acts...the most important gift blessing and gift you cannot buy...nurturing tender loving care and courage strength and humility all of which you clearly have in every fiber of your spirit and body!
Wow! 3 million subscribers. He’s come suck a long way since those first Albert videos. Every video is so well produced and Alwyn works so many miracles for the animals. Well deserved, and I’ll keep giving my support!
You are such a kind person. You know so much yet are so gentle with them. It seems to only be one way, people are either educated but rough or gentle and uneducated. I inspire to be like you one day to help animals like you do. Thank you
Gee,congratulations on 3 million subscribers! I still remember being a high school student in 2017 and stumbling across your channel searching for ways to save a bird I found in my backyard. I can honestly say that watching your videos all these years is one of the most meaningful memories of my life, and it is one of my biggest goals to be able to contribute to your channel monthly after I secure a job when I graduate next year :D wish me luck, and best of luck to you!
It was so funny how he picked up the swan and just ran. I was subscribed to your channel since the video about a hen raising a duck, your content is really sweet and wholesome, thank you so much for saving and helping out all these animals!
Three milion!?! Big congratulations! It's amazing to know that 3 milion (minimally) souls are learning from you ❤Thank you so much for your hard, thank you that you're helping to the every animal, you could - I'm so proud that I may support you and I know I'd want to support you in the future - you really deserve the support and I'm so, SO happy that your Sanctuaty is slowly growing 😍
Your content always makes me happy because it gives me hope for humanity, when we see the absolute cruelty humans inflict upon beautiful sentient beings it’s the people like you who save many of us from total despair, I save anything I can from a fly to a deer, in my view every living creature has a right to live it’s life free from harm. I think you are a wonderful human being.
im so glad the little nandu/rhea is growing so big! they are such sensitive babies, i wasnt sure if he would survive, even in your expert hands. keep going little nandu!!
Such a positive vibe on this channel. You seem like genuine person. I like your energy and commitment. To me this is a inspiration to keep positive and try to do my best for my surroundings, although I live not as spacious as you. I’ve made some birdsboxes and shelters for bats and have seed plants for insects and hope to attract some wildlife this summer. Greetings.
You are such a shining Light in this world... You make the world a better place my friend ... Goodness me how fragile is life, when we see that tiny tiny bird... You are a blessing... Thankyou ✨💛✨🤗
What a great ending, the swan looked like it was having a great time. Congratulations on reaching 3m subscribers, you deserve millions more, you are an inspiration.
Wow... I found your channel about a month ago and I am in awe ❤️ life is so extraordinary and so many fail to realize this. I wish I could live where you live, it's so beautiful! I'd volunteer my free time to your farm anytime if you were close to me!!
There are not a lot of things that make me genuinely feel like supporting, this is one of them, I've been watching the channel since Albert and really love what you do for nature, if my membership can help you in any way I'll gladly become a monthly member, keep up the great work!.
Featured content on your channel. You are special and the animals are beautiful come on forward and we wish you good luck.... We love you from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
I just adore you. Congratulations!!!! On your 3 Million. I've been with ou sense the beginning. I'm so proud of you, I knew you could do it. You have wonderful and sad stories. God bless you....
I absolutely love your videos, Alwyn. I always get excited when I see a new upload, and stop what I'm doing to watch it! I had no idea eggs could ever be shaped like that, my wife said it looked like a butternut squash! The escaped bird looks like my angora rabbit, Silkie! So fluffy and soft. 😆🥰 I had no idea you had a younger brother! How awesome you have support from him too. You all do such amazing work, you sacrifice everything to look after the most vulnerable animals, you make me proud to be a fellow human. You have such deep empathy for everything living. You're an inspiration! 😄👍👍
@@danjordan1979 How old is your angora rabbit & what is his or her name? I know two families with rabbits as pets. One is a white rabbit named "Ears" and the other is one of the giant Flemish rabbits, who was just purchased one week ago, and who immediately had babies (buyer did not know the rabbit was pregnant).
@@twistoffate4791 she's a rescue, so we're not exactly sure of her age, but around 2-3 years old. Her name is Silkie, as she looks like a Silkie chicken! Ears is a great name for a bunny! 😂 We have 10 bunnies in total, they're all so different in personality, and they're so rewarding once you earn their trust and love. We've always wanted a giant bunny pair, but we would have to wait until we had less bunnies before we did. It's not uncommon for bunnies to get pregnant by their brothers or even dad if they're not separated in time! They reach maturity quite young. 😯
Oh! It makes me SO Happy! Thank you! (Biggest smiles ever.) I just had to join your channel. *I've watched your videos for a couple of years and they always touch my heart. You are a kindred spirit. Love and Light to you and thank you for sharing!*
You are one of the kindest men I know when it comes to loving and nurturing all of God's creatures. I wish there were more men in the world like you. I enjoy watching all of your videos. I go back and watch all of the first channels to try and catch up. Thank you so much for teaching your children how important it is to care for and love animals no matter how big or small they are. You are truly one of a kind.
This guy is a true caring man. When I die, I want to come back as an egg so he can hatch me! He does beautiful work. Bless him and all his fortunate creatures.
Congrats, Alwyn! I hope to be able to become a member, but for now I can only say that I adore your work and your videos. I wish more of the 3 million subscribers would WATCH and LIKE the videos!!!
I've seen and held shelless eggs and a huge chicken egg, with a complete shelled egg inside. The outer, large shell was 'bumpy' not smooth. Nature is amazing. Thank you for uploading and teaching people how to respectfully care for living creatures.
Daaamn, 3 millions already ! I think I subscribed when there was less than 15 videos on the channel ! I also remember being sad because the channel had quite a big hiatus at it's beginning ! And now we are here !
I know they aren't really a main focus, but thank you thank you thank you for taking care of the poor tropical birds that need a home! Especially the zebra finches, those have always had a place near and dear to my heart, as my first pets.
Ohmygoodness! Sooo much plumage on the Nandu when it was running from you! And I've only recently found your channel, but I LOVED seeing a bit of an update on the tiny horses, sheep, etc
My only way of supporting this channel is by watching all the adds and if we all (3M people) watched the adds too, the channel would benefit from it. I really wish I had more cash so I could help more. I hope next year is a better year. ❤
3million? Hot damn I remember when i first started watching you, you only had around 6k subs and I remember thinking that was a pretty big channel for a man who uploaded videos about a chicken. Maaaaaan its crazy how much the channel has grown, and changed over the years huge congrats my friend!
In germany, yesterday a bis aquarium burst and over a thousand tropical fish dies. This is so sad. Also, they didn't try to help them, they were more concerned about water going on a street.
I work in a store that sells chicks. The chicks ended up stuck in the shipment warehouse for over 12 hours in the freezing cold. Over 80 DOA in a shipment of about 200. it was a really really hard day emotionally. Just thank you so much for what you do. I have to believe there's good in the world because you're here and proof. I wish I could have done what you do for your chicks that take a downturn. There were so many that went downhill that won't be there tomorrow
You are the hero of the the small & what might otherwise be the forgotten. You & Your channel bring me & I know others such joy & more than that hope for all of us, that there are others such as yourself with a heart so big & a life that is being used to appreciate that “all life” matters. Though I am presently unable to contribute to your worthy cause, I share your videos with as many others as I can in the hope that others may do so. Your videos change the heart. Thank you.🤍
Congratulations on the 3m! And, this was already said, but you jogging down a road with a wild goose under one arm is the most hilarious thing I've seen.
He never asks for subs or likes,he actually CARES about animals (unlike animal abusers) and if you looked at his older videos,he helped a chick poop so it wouldn't die. He is calm and probably the best TH-camr on yt
I am watching you while I hand feed an orphaned baby ringtail possum. I am in Australia. I also have two orphaned sugar gliders in my aviary that are almost ready for release back into nature as you say 😊 You sure do make me happy, I think I am in love with you 😂
Ik vond toevallig je video omdat ik benieuwd was hoe je kippeneieren kunt hatchen en nu zit ik al je video's te kijken:zo gaaf! Zo ontroerend om te zien hoe je de beestjes redt en helpt opgroeien, en je enthousiasme erover. Gefeliciteerd met 3 mil subscribers! Ik ga jullie zeker weten supporten in 2023. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for making this video! I've been following you before you started Patreon. I'm a broke college student, and I wish I could be a Patreon member. It's great to get the personal side of you. Got another year or two, but as soon as I graduate, I'll be a member! I appreciate your work and I know that the animals do too.
seeing you running with that swan under your arm brought back childhood memories of the infamous rod hull and his emu as a dutch man you might remember him from nearly choking and drowning Ron Brandsteder in 1982 in the swobizzquiz
I'm am so grateful there is someone like you doing the beautiful work you do. Thank you so much, if I wasn't dirt poor I would be supporting your channel without a doubt.
Alwyn, this is great to see your set up, and to meet your brother! I've been a Patreon member for a while now, but I'm bad, I don't log on to the app very often, I'm just happy to donate to you, but I really should log on b/c it's awesome to see the sanctuary you've created! I follow a lot of animal channels here on youtube, but you're the only one I donate to... I would love to donate to everyone who's out there helping needy animals, but I live on a fixed income, so it brings me so much joy to contribute to your efforts. I wish I could do the kind of work that you do, maybe one day I will. Thank you for being a guardian of our animal friends! Oh yeah, that chicken egg is crazy!!! I've worked with chickens my entire life and never have I ever seen, or heard of, such a thing!
As a former wildlife rescue volunteer I can only tell all followers: If you can afford it, please donate, because the costs for veterinarian bills, special food like insects for the birds, the building of the outdoor enclosures and many other costs are so high and it is hard to get all the money needed.

I just took your advice and put in a nice donation. You are so right about the costs, time, and all of it. Thanks for the kind reminder!
you, running down the road with a swan under your arm, is the best thing I've seen this this week
I was literally laughing out loud at that! ❤️ this man!
🙂 yes, it was amazing, the highlight of the video 😆❤
Made me LOL!
Then I wonder what the best thing you saw last week was
Omgosh I always love seeing him run down the street with any animal! He's fun, I would love to meet him in life and help him save an animal

How exactly?
I love it that you checked for life first before you gave the special egg to the museum. You give every animal a chance.
What a great video. It is so nice to see that all of the animals we were introduced to are doing well.
And I love to hear Alberts little beeps at the end of every video. There is no way we will forget about him.
Keep on doing what you do Alwyn!
Ha, that’s Albert indeed! I’m not sure many know this…

Wait his name is Alwyn?
@spimeminister Yes. The guy who rescues all these animals is named Alwyn.
Honestly pretty brave of him to just pick up that swam like that. Swans can mess you up. But I'd except nothing less after all this time. ❤️
Exactly that. It's like he can speak bird to them.
it's like they can just feel the unconditional love and care he has for them
Swan had a "bruh?" expression on its face when yoinked up
I thought for SURE the feathered cobra would take an ear!

Good luckkk
It's wonderful to see animals from previous stories here in the sanctuary thriving and enjoying the best life. Thank you for everything you do. I'm so proud to be a member of ACCA! Wishing you, your family, team ACCA, and your sanctuary a warm, joyous festive season!
You two are wonderful, thank you for all you do for wildlife and for sharing it with us. Congratulations on the numbers !!
You running along with the Swan in your arms was amazing - like the bird knew and felt comfortable with the rhythm of the pace - like just before take-off for flight. I dont doubt that the Swan was heavy - I'm sure chasing winged creatures makes you very fit 👍👍
I've watched you for YEARS and I have never heard your voice until now, for some reason. I have to say, I find it very calming and very interesting to listen to! I always found accents calming and relaxing for me.
Aww you are always such a sweetheart and you can see all the animals love and trust for you ❤️🌹 thank you for being you and sharing your journey with us.
I wish I could afford to become a member, unfortunately I’m not in a financial place to do it . . . . So I do the next best thing I can, I watch all the ads and all the way through the video plus I rewatch on the regular lol simply because it makes me happy 🥰
I wish I could see those special vids and support you but I'm super poor and have nothing extra to give😔 you are an earth angel and thanks to everyone that does help!✌
First finding this channel I had the same thought, but now I got a job and earn stuff and I can give what I can, three, four years later? Also a testament to how things can get better in one's personal life :))
Same. Hopefully in the future we both can. 🙏
@@sabinepiter5470 good stuff! I hope life continues to be fruitful for you....🤗
@@anyascelticcreations your name implies some interesting artwork.....may you have customers climbing over each other to buy your wares!! Keep spreading the love🤗
@@ggibson262 hey yes you're right, Anya does have a pretty etsy page :) Shame I don't wear fancy jewellery.
I would marry this man. Whoever has him is very lucky. I’ve never seen a more kind and genuine human being. He gives me hope for the future.
I always come to your channel when I need a smile! Thank you for all the amazing work you do to help all the wonderful animals 💕
Absolutely one of the kindest souls on this planet. Ty for all you do brother. God bless you
Kindest soups😂
@@snubby49 haha opps
I've only just come across your videos and I am so glad I did! You are a genuinely beautiful human and I appreciate you sharing your passion with us all. You are so inspiring and it brings me joy to see what you do. I also appreciate these videos where we get to see and hear you more. Thank you for what you do and who you are.
You sir are an inspiration to all animal lovers and supporters of life. Bless you!
Your farm is incredible & shows how huge your heart is!!
I was just scrolling through my TH-cam and I saw the story about the tiniest egg ever. And I could not help myself I just had to look at it, as I am an animal lover have been my entire 60 years on this planet. It was so precious and it made me smile and made my heart warm. Keep doing what you are doing and your brother also. Much thanks from myself and from all the animals out there that you have helped and that you will help. Tracy USA Boise Idaho
- Wow I loved all of these clips. My favorite was seeing more of your farm though so thank you for sharing with us all. ❤️
Congratulations on the 3 million mark!!! What wonderful sanctuary you have going already. It was lovely to meet your brother and hear a little background about your lives.
I wish I could be a member again, but I can't right now. I hope to again when I can count on being able to. And finally, how incredible that a wild swan allowed you to catch him and run with him in your arms. He must have known that you were there to help. Thank you for doing what you do. 🙏
It always makes me so happy to see you doing so much for these animals. Just a couple months ago, one of my older pet chickens, Rocky, passed away from unknown causes. I was completely heartbroken, as I had spent the last few months of her life trying to figure out what was killing her. Even the avian vets, who we spent an hour driving out and spent a good amount of money to assess her, did not have a clear answer. I did not think I had more room in my heart left for another bird, but shortly after Rocky died, I went to a horse rescue, and found this sweet little chick that only seemed to be about a month or two old. The lady that runs the rescue, Remedy Rescue Ranch, was so kind to let me adopt her after a few visits. She is now the newest member of the flock, and is the sweetest, cutest little pullet since Levi (the previous baby of the flock). I named her Zelda, and a part of me thinks a little bit of Rocky’s soul lives in her. I don’t think I would be as loving of an animal person today if it weren’t for your videos. Thank you for changing these animals’ worlds, and thank you for sharing these amazing rescues with us 💙💙💙
I've been sharing my home with budgies for the past 8yrs, right now 3 of them are rescues. Whenever one of them is sick, or having a hard time, or passes away, I tend to get very emotional, to the point where I'm overwhelmed, but watching Alwyn's videos reminds me to be brave and calm, and to not get stuck in sadness when I lose a bird, b/c it's part of life and at least I was able to give them a loving home whilst they were here. I've found a lot of comfort and encouragement from his videos. I'm glad you've found the same :)
I'm so happy to see more of your sanctuary as I was very curious about it. I've wanted to support you through Patreon for as long as I've known your channel but that is not possible for me at the moment. Your videos bring me so much joy, more than you know. You inspired me to find work in a wildlife rescue center and now I know I want to do that every day of my life. Thank you so much ❤
I am so happy and proud of you💗! You're one of the main reason why I decided to take vet med. Your kindness and love for animals are contagious. Would love to meet you someday. You will always be one of my heroes💗.
There are those who like to shine in Dubai, in luxury cars with gold watches, and those who know what is essential in life, love, respect and sharing with the animals that show us the way. The beautiful things are the simplest things. This is what would save us in this world if there were more of us like this man.
Love seeing your space and some of the animals from your past videos. Thank you!
You are loved and appreciated globally! This is your natural borne gift and purpose your job that is a pleasure a passion a calling the things you do regardless of sacrafice or personal heartache unselfishly to benefit a living creature that cannot help themselves and can only benefit by your skilled acts...the most important gift blessing and gift you cannot buy...nurturing tender loving care and courage strength and humility all of which you clearly have in every fiber of your spirit and body!
Wow! 3 million subscribers. He’s come suck a long way since those first Albert videos. Every video is so well produced and Alwyn works so many miracles for the animals. Well deserved, and I’ll keep giving my support!
You are such a kind person. You know so much yet are so gentle with them. It seems to only be one way, people are either educated but rough or gentle and uneducated. I inspire to be like you one day to help animals like you do.
Thank you
Gee,congratulations on 3 million subscribers! I still remember being a high school student in 2017 and stumbling across your channel searching for ways to save a bird I found in my backyard. I can honestly say that watching your videos all these years is one of the most meaningful memories of my life, and it is one of my biggest goals to be able to contribute to your channel monthly after I secure a job when I graduate next year :D wish me luck, and best of luck to you!
It was so funny how he picked up the swan and just ran. I was subscribed to your channel since the video about a hen raising a duck, your content is really sweet and wholesome, thank you so much for saving and helping out all these animals!
Three milion!?! Big congratulations!
It's amazing to know that 3 milion (minimally) souls are learning from you ❤Thank you so much for your hard, thank you that you're helping to the every animal, you could - I'm so proud that I may support you and I know I'd want to support you in the future - you really deserve the support and I'm so, SO happy that your Sanctuaty is slowly growing 😍
What you do is absolutely incredible! You add more value to this earth than any other person, keep going strong 💪🏻
Watching this channel grow has been amazing! My family now knows of the magical "bird man" who saves the life of so many animals each year!
Thank you so much for caring & then videoing everything editing & then posting. I love everything you do .❤
Your content always makes me happy because it gives me hope for humanity, when we see the absolute cruelty humans inflict upon beautiful sentient beings it’s the people like you who save many of us from total despair, I save anything I can from a fly to a deer, in my view every living creature has a right to live it’s life free from harm. I think you are a wonderful human being.
🙏
im so glad the little nandu/rhea is growing so big! they are such sensitive babies, i wasnt sure if he would survive, even in your expert hands. keep going little nandu!!
It's actually amazing how skilled you are with taking care of animals. I'm blown away at what you do; It's incredible!
Such a positive vibe on this channel. You seem like genuine person. I like your energy and commitment. To me this is a inspiration to keep positive and try to do my best for my surroundings, although I live not as spacious as you. I’ve made some birdsboxes and shelters for bats and have seed plants for insects and hope to attract some wildlife this summer. Greetings.
Thank you for all your wonderful work Alwyn, we need more people like you in the world 🐓🦅🐦🌎💚💙🤗
You are such a shining Light in this world...
You make the world a better place my friend ...
Goodness me how fragile is life, when we see that tiny tiny bird...
You are a blessing... Thankyou ✨💛✨🤗
What a great ending, the swan looked like it was having a great time. Congratulations on reaching 3m subscribers, you deserve millions more, you are an inspiration.
Any animal who comes in contact with you is a very lucky animal. And yes, I have no doubt they love you!
Wow... I found your channel about a month ago and I am in awe ❤️ life is so extraordinary and so many fail to realize this. I wish I could live where you live, it's so beautiful! I'd volunteer my free time to your farm anytime if you were close to me!!
There are not a lot of things that make me genuinely feel like supporting, this is one of them, I've been watching the channel since Albert and really love what you do for nature, if my membership can help you in any way I'll gladly become a monthly member, keep up the great work!.
You are such an incredible guy! Unique! Thanks for caring!!!😄
Featured content on your channel. You are special and the animals are beautiful come on forward and we wish you good luck.... We love you from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Love hearing your voice! Nice to hear your accent, which sounds really nice to my Aussie ear.
Also, I never knew emus come in albino.
My mistake! I said Emus whereas these are of course Nandus (or Rheas), excuse me 🤭
@AChickCalledAlbert That's okay! The quick google I did showed white emus can happen, even if what you have is not that.
This man and his brother are global treasures. Thank you for all that you do for animals and for sharing with us.
I just adore you. Congratulations!!!! On your 3 Million. I've been with ou sense the beginning. I'm so proud of you, I knew you could do it. You have wonderful and sad stories.
God bless you....
I absolutely love your videos, Alwyn. I always get excited when I see a new upload, and stop what I'm doing to watch it! I had no idea eggs could ever be shaped like that, my wife said it looked like a butternut squash! The escaped bird looks like my angora rabbit, Silkie! So fluffy and soft. 😆🥰 I had no idea you had a younger brother! How awesome you have support from him too. You all do such amazing work, you sacrifice everything to look after the most vulnerable animals, you make me proud to be a fellow human. You have such deep empathy for everything living. You're an inspiration! 😄👍👍
Exactly!
@Daniel Jordan, I like your comment, as you said it all. Thank you.
@@twistoffate4791 thank you! I appreciate it. Alwyn is someone I aspire to be like. All creatures great and small!
@@danjordan1979 How old is your angora rabbit & what is his or her name? I know two families with rabbits as pets. One is a white rabbit named "Ears" and the other is one of the giant Flemish rabbits, who was just purchased one week ago, and who immediately had babies (buyer did not know the rabbit was pregnant).
@@twistoffate4791 she's a rescue, so we're not exactly sure of her age, but around 2-3 years old. Her name is Silkie, as she looks like a Silkie chicken! Ears is a great name for a bunny! 😂 We have 10 bunnies in total, they're all so different in personality, and they're so rewarding once you earn their trust and love. We've always wanted a giant bunny pair, but we would have to wait until we had less bunnies before we did. It's not uncommon for bunnies to get pregnant by their brothers or even dad if they're not separated in time! They reach maturity quite young. 😯
This chann was one of the many reasons I kept a smile on my face for a while. Thank you so much
Oh! It makes me SO Happy! Thank you! (Biggest smiles ever.) I just had to join your channel. *I've watched your videos for a couple of years and they always touch my heart. You are a kindred spirit. Love and Light to you and thank you for sharing!*
Congratulations on hitting 3 Million subscribers! Good things should always happen to good people like you! Thank you for all you do for the animals!
You are one of the kindest men I know when it comes to loving and nurturing all of God's creatures. I wish there were more men in the world like you. I enjoy watching all of your videos. I go back and watch all of the first channels to try and catch up. Thank you so much for teaching your children how important it is to care for and love animals no matter how big or small they are. You are truly one of a kind.
This guy is a true caring man. When I die, I want to come back as an egg so he can hatch me! He does beautiful work. Bless him and all his fortunate creatures.
Congrats, Alwyn! I hope to be able to become a member, but for now I can only say that I adore your work and your videos. I wish more of the 3 million subscribers would WATCH and LIKE the videos!!!
I've seen and held shelless eggs and a huge chicken egg, with a complete shelled egg inside. The outer, large shell was 'bumpy' not smooth. Nature is amazing. Thank you for uploading and teaching people how to respectfully care for living creatures.
Daaamn, 3 millions already ! I think I subscribed when there was less than 15 videos on the channel ! I also remember being sad because the channel had quite a big hiatus at it's beginning ! And now we are here !
You're videos & rescues Always make me Happy! Thank you for all you do for the beautiful animals. 💖💕♥️
Merry Christmas 🎄🎀🎄🎀🎄🎀🎄 Thank you for taking care these animals 👍💯
I know they aren't really a main focus, but thank you thank you thank you for taking care of the poor tropical birds that need a home! Especially the zebra finches, those have always had a place near and dear to my heart, as my first pets.
You’re so nice! Every stray creature is safe when he reaches your hands❤️
Ohmygoodness! Sooo much plumage on the Nandu when it was running from you! And I've only recently found your channel, but I LOVED seeing a bit of an update on the tiny horses, sheep, etc
Gosh I never even knew eggs could look like that!
Heres to 3 million more! Wish you the best success!!
You have such a beautiful property!
My only way of supporting this channel is by watching all the adds and if we all (3M people) watched the adds too, the channel would benefit from it. I really wish I had more cash so I could help more. I hope next year is a better year. ❤
3million? Hot damn I remember when i first started watching you, you only had around 6k subs and I remember thinking that was a pretty big channel for a man who uploaded videos about a chicken. Maaaaaan its crazy how much the channel has grown, and changed over the years huge congrats my friend!
In germany, yesterday a bis aquarium burst and over a thousand tropical fish dies. This is so sad. Also, they didn't try to help them, they were more concerned about water going on a street.
I work in a store that sells chicks. The chicks ended up stuck in the shipment warehouse for over 12 hours in the freezing cold. Over 80 DOA in a shipment of about 200. it was a really really hard day emotionally. Just thank you so much for what you do. I have to believe there's good in the world because you're here and proof. I wish I could have done what you do for your chicks that take a downturn. There were so many that went downhill that won't be there tomorrow
I feel so good watching your video that atleast someone cares about these animals....so inspiring thankyou for sharing these videos
Wishing you and your family and all your animals a very Merry Christmas. I love all your videos and you for all you do for animals.
You are the hero of the the small & what might otherwise be the forgotten. You & Your channel bring me & I know others such joy & more than that hope for all of us, that there are others such as yourself with a heart so big & a life that is being used to appreciate that “all life” matters.
Though I am presently unable to contribute to your worthy cause, I share your videos with as many others as I can in the hope that others may do so.
Your videos change the heart. Thank you.🤍
Congratulations on the 3m! And, this was already said, but you jogging down a road with a wild goose under one arm is the most hilarious thing I've seen.
I cannot imagine what that poor hen goes through laying her eggs.
Bless her.
That weird one must have hurt
I guess that egg didn’t survive is the reason he gave it to the museum, otherwise it was just a waste of life if it was still alive?
He never asks for subs or likes,he actually CARES about animals (unlike animal abusers) and if you looked at his older videos,he helped a chick poop so it wouldn't die. He is calm and probably the best TH-camr on yt
I am watching you while I hand feed an orphaned baby ringtail possum. I am in Australia. I also have two orphaned sugar gliders in my aviary that are almost ready for release back into nature as you say 😊 You sure do make me happy, I think I am in love with you 😂
Ik vond toevallig je video omdat ik benieuwd was hoe je kippeneieren kunt hatchen en nu zit ik al je video's te kijken:zo gaaf! Zo ontroerend om te zien hoe je de beestjes redt en helpt opgroeien, en je enthousiasme erover. Gefeliciteerd met 3 mil subscribers! Ik ga jullie zeker weten supporten in 2023. Keep up the good work!
You are the best! Thank you for Helping animals in need ❤🇸🇪
Congrats on 3M! I always adore seeing your videos pop up in my inbox, they're so fun to watch. Much love from a fellow Dutch person
Thank you for making this video! I've been following you before you started Patreon. I'm a broke college student, and I wish I could be a Patreon member. It's great to get the personal side of you. Got another year or two, but as soon as I graduate, I'll be a member! I appreciate your work and I know that the animals do too.
Your home is what I think of as pure heaven you work so hard and care so much,I'm a lifelong friend now ❤❤❤
seeing you running with that swan under your arm brought back childhood memories of the infamous rod hull and his emu as a dutch man you might remember him from nearly choking and drowning Ron Brandsteder in 1982 in the swobizzquiz
Congrats on 3 million, You deserve it! ❤
I'm am so grateful there is someone like you doing the beautiful work you do. Thank you so much, if I wasn't dirt poor I would be supporting your channel without a doubt.
Kudos on your 3M sub milestone, well deserved. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Alwyn, this is great to see your set up, and to meet your brother! I've been a Patreon member for a while now, but I'm bad, I don't log on to the app very often, I'm just happy to donate to you, but I really should log on b/c it's awesome to see the sanctuary you've created! I follow a lot of animal channels here on youtube, but you're the only one I donate to... I would love to donate to everyone who's out there helping needy animals, but I live on a fixed income, so it brings me so much joy to contribute to your efforts. I wish I could do the kind of work that you do, maybe one day I will. Thank you for being a guardian of our animal friends! Oh yeah, that chicken egg is crazy!!! I've worked with chickens my entire life and never have I ever seen, or heard of, such a thing!
