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 can transform our 150+ acre parcel of land into a regenerative and productive homestead and farm.
It was another great day of saving the bees......
we need to save the other types as well the bees that don't make hives do most of the work for plants
I can actually hear her saying that!! Lol
@@xenaM22 I was beginning to think no one knew the reference

It is hilarous to see Morgan starting to enjoy the Goats, just shows sometimes it is the best to get out of your comfort zone because you never know what will happen.
I mean they're v affectionate, that's nothing to do with how easily caged they keep 😂
You could give your goats an area with some piled up boulders (*My buddy Alfred intensifies*) . Goats love to climb, especially on rocky surfaces ^^
Morgan ya all need to watch some beekeepers procedures on how to transfer comb to frames and removing combs with a flat knife .
Maybe check Texas Beeworks
And get a queen bee clip
Maybe White House on the Hill
I know you hate filming anything bee related, but thanks for taking one for the team and filming that shenanigans.😂❤🐝
@@saraschneider6781 lmao
Diary of a mad beekeeper would be a good title for a future book of yours! 🐝
Yes!
Hey Morgan! After the bees have started their hibernation and while the wild grass/flowers are still intact it would benefit the area to allow the goats in to do a clear before winter. They will deposit fertilizer and seeds that will bloom the following spring!!
Goats are great for yard management!!
Morgan, I Really agree with TravellingGypsy that is a great thing to have your goats doing this. Just remember to have them financed in do they don't get out.
Beekeeper here....The lid you had on your bees is an inner cover not a top cover so with all of the rain , the hole in the inner cover allowed the rain to get in which is why you thought they were gone. The brood is most likely lost. . That's a big set back this time of year for such a small colony. Also the other colony you showed is very small. If they have any chance to make it through the winter , you'll need to feed asap. If their frames aren't drawn out, you might be better off combining them because they most likely won't draw out frames this time of year. They definitely won't without feeding. Another tip is I have never lost a swarm if I feed them as soon as I place them in their new home. So I always recommend feeding a new colony. We only have a few more weeks to prepare oyur bees for winter. Frames need to be drawn out and filled with honey, mite treatments need to be done and they need to be winterized next month.Right now they need to be making those fat bodied winter bees but if your Queen doesn't have anywhere to lay, she can't do that.
It certainly sounds like you know what you're talking about. I hope Morgan pays attention. I applaud him for trying new things, but a quick few minutes of fact-finding can help a lot. Especially if you have experts commenting on your own videos! There's another channel, Project Kamp, who makes big mistakes, asks for help in the comments, and then either doesn't read the comments, or simply thinks they're lying. It doesn't make any sense. I wish I had the community of support that most creators on here have.
Maybe you should take a road trip :) It is a busy time of year, reach out if you have the time, we would all love to learn your knowledge ❤❤
Failure is so necessary as it is a great teacher. (Even though we beat ourselves up about our failures.)
Ouch! Thank goodness Alison was home to help you with the stings. Glad you got to keep the swarm. 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️🤩🤩🤩
The Abby SLO-MO across the pasture and down the hill was so fun to watch.
For a city boy turned farmer, you have grown in amazing ways, as a person, as a farmer…. More.
Goats always want to be on the highest possible perch. If you bend over and pause, you might find 4 little hooves in the small of your back.
Glad you are not allergic to bees. Thank you for sharing your bee adventure.
The bees really braved the journey there. I'm glad the garden is so good that when the bees move it's more like a buy a house in your parent's street kind of thing.
I'm glad to see you already learned a goat's 2 favorite hobbies.
Happy bees show a prosperous farm environment
6:18 you'd make an excellent film producer Morgan, thats what you do every day, and the sound effects 😂😂😂😂😂 top of the charts ❤❤❤❤
Diary of a Mad Beekeeper 😂. Seriously tho sorry you got stung! Ouch!! So glad the bees are rehomed!!
Leaving off the beekeeping costume piece by piece when the bees got at you reminded me of when my 7-year-old niece got into some fireants. She ran screaming all the way to the house, stripping off as she went and was butt naked by the time she got to the porch 😂 That was 20 years ago and we still give her hell about it.
😂😂😂😂😂 too funny, my sons always had ADHD (minor not extreme) and I opted not to put him on meds, I was a lot more strict with him. Well.... he had a habit of losing house keys. He lost his set, he lost the spare, my daughter refused to borrow hers AGAIN, since I was out and he was going to be home from school and me not there for twenty minutes, I left a note in our language but wrote it in English since he cannot read our language. I wrote *chaabee* (keys) under mat, when we arrived and were parking we saw him do a wierd dance for 2 whole minutes, my daughter and I looked at each other and saying what the heck is he doing, so I starting walking up the stairs whilst shouting at him, finally got his attention, I said what????? He goes, I read *bees* he was like pretty mortified and looked like he was actually stung by a few(imaginary bees) 😂😂😂😂
Awesome bees, glad they stayed in the box!
Wow, I never tought I would see a Abby's moment of zen. :)
Ah, the glorious Marema shot, fur undulating gently with each movement. Love it! 🙂
Loving the magestic slow mo of Miss Abby. So cute
So cool seeing you get your bearings with all the new animals over the years. I’m so chuffed about the goats and bees ❤
Put one more box of bees on top, almost to the ledge where they were freebeeing it, good protection for winter.
"Hey Cows , Come on Cows , Fresh Grass , Fresh Grass!!!" - My weedman texting me about his new strain
As someone who has a terrible phobia of bees, this was a fun video to watch 😭 The shot of the bees falling onto the camera certainly woke up my neighbors' baby... 😅
Really wouldBee great if you could have a Bee keeper walk you through finding the Queen ,placing her in a clip and show you how ,after that it's not usually a struggle at all. The haphazard method is truly a hazard for you and them. Glad you're not hurt worse, but most keepers will tell you stings is how they build immunity. Wow you got a pretty good dose there Morgan! Well being you, Allison &all the critters
Let’s face it Morgan, you are more of a bee disturber than a bee keeper,lol. Have to say you have been one lucky guy, definitely thought you’d have more bee stings by now🐝. Not to worry as long as you’re not allergic, bee stings are known to relieve or even cure some types of disease. Larn and gang are looking more settled each time we see them, it’s a good thing as Martha Stewart would say😉. Looks like life is good at Gold Shaw Farm, thanks for taking us along.🪿🦆🐥🐓🐐🐄🐕🐕💕👍
Them goats standing on that igloo
If the goats end up being a permanent species on the farm, I hope Morgan makes them a couple of spots to climb on !
You really have become a music master. 🎼 Great video👌
Good to see the ducklings released! The goats are amazingly tame… seems like they’ll become a great “brush control crew”..
Farm problems once again put my own woes into perspective. Thank you, Morgan!
Goats are friendly omnivorous dogs really I love it when you bring us along for a task and bees are life!!
🐝 eautiful swarm save Morgan! You lucked out!👍😃
Omg, that happened to me my final year of bee keeping (15). Just exactly like you. Ran away peeling off clothes, from the same lacked zipper closure, omg it had to look just like that❤😂
Tysm
Oh, and 12 stings at one time.
Congrats on catching the extra swarm. And might I add, you are a million times better than me at keeping bees because I'm allergic to their sting so I would never do it.
Also, nice to know the kids are growing on you.
For your bees, I highly recommend your check out Vino Farms and their Bee Barn Setup. I think it'd make things much easier on you! LOVE this farm and your channel!
The goats are very well behaved for goats ❤❤❤
Oh that musical puppy romp was awesome.
They climb on top of the igloo bc goats love climbing! At some point you should build them some sort of climbing area jungle gym type thing, I promise you they’ll use it every single day & it’ll be 100% worth it!
Seems like the goats might be great on pasture boarders and hard jobs like clearing the duck/goose house and gardens after growing season to get ready for winter. Could also "borrow them" out to neighbors for similar tasks. Goats "should" be a bit more confinable than the pigs.
SHOULD BE.....
I'm glad you were able to home the colony.😊
I gotta say this swarm looked pretty good for such a late swarm. Usually a late swarm is a sorry bunch that won't make the winter even if you feed them heavily. They just freeze to death because they are too small to stay warm. Also, late swarms usually happen because of Varroa mite pressure, not reproduction. So these are not normal, healthy swarms (you get these from may to july). Since you regularly have late swarms, do you treat against Varroa mite at all, and how? You might be able to save yourself some of that hassle.
Thanks for keeping us up on all the buzz on the farm
Good morning Morgan!
Hi. Loved Abby’s slow-mo. She is beautiful! You are brave Morgan. Bee keeping is not for the faint of heart. You did great!
Love your videos. I wish I could live your lifestyle.
You can always put colored bands on the legs of the ducks to keep track of them.
You were so cheerful after getting stung! Made me smile.😁
I thought we were going to hear the “my buddy Alfred” song.
You need a queen clip for queens otherwise youll be fihting a losing battle
Helpful bee tips!
1. Use some rubber bands to better attach the comb to the hives, it will help keep the bees from making one giant messy hive and instead have them placed on frames nicely. The bees will chew off and take the rubber bands out of the hive after some time, it should be long enough to have the comb attached to the frame.
2. Use a soft bristle brush to brush off the bees from the spot you are trying to remove them from. It is gentle enough to keep them from getting hurt and is much better at getting them off of things like a pallet or fence.
More goats, more goats, more goats please. So much fun to watch.
Let Morgan get use to the 3 he has now first. & maybe get more say maybe next year.
Whoot-Whoot on the collection of the swarm!
I love the music!
Ooo! Alice and Bea!
Bees crawling into the bee suit, good times. Also fun when you're taking it off and don't realize one crawled up your back until you get stung.
Hey, I know this is some unsolicited advice but you need to get back into that hive and reattach that comb correctly. You have the top oriented down now. Honey comb has a top and bottom orientation. The top that was hanging from that piece of wood needs to be facing upwards. You can use rubberhands to supprt the comb until the bees attach it. This is a common mustake that is made by new beekeepers. Get some rubber bands and attach it to the corners of the frame and use it like a basket. The top of the comb has to face the top. If you look at honey comb front the front, facing it, the comb is angled down slightly. This angle helps to keep in nectar. Just wanted to let you know so you can go back and take corrective action.
only legends know the incredible weekend with family on farm .
Bee Dance!
LOL! Thinking goats will play by your playbook.
I love the voice you gave Abby! That was so cute and funny!
It started dull and cloudy this morning here but all afternoon it's been gawjuss, highest at 20° right now in Manchester UK 🇬🇧 😀 😊
Goats love climbing on things
I love the " Olympic Abby" music
A slurry of bicarbonate of soda & water will help with the pain of the sting.
Honestly your bee keeping videos are my favorite videos u make.
I don't think this was supposed to be the name of this video
Yupppp incorrect name
Yes because I’ve seen this video some time ago.
It should've been.... Diary of a bad beekeeper 😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤
No bees got into his suit?
@@darlenefraser3022he has corrected it
🐝 bee's are great for farmers and gardeners.
in my country. They don't need protective gear to extract honey 😅
Excited to see Jessica visit you guys!!
Omg we finally got a bee episode. I love it!
Thank you!
The goats are sweet
OMG…..🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
Man i wish u coulda got jeff horchoff up there to help .. ngl would have been a treat❤❤ not saying u cant or dint handle it well. I def am very proud of how well u managed all tht on ur own .
Don’t forget to include Toby in socialization with the goats. It might even help the goats get used to Abby faster.
I was willing to rewatch buuut it’s a new video! Already expecting it to be taken down and change. Hopefully I can finish before then so I don’t have to wait for the repost 🤪
I love that you used the hold music. 😂
I love your goats❤
Rush through the chores to get out there where?! Left us on a cliff hanger, Morgan. Glad you got that swarm to practice your bee keeping :p - Dakota & Angela
welcome from Island
Uploaded with incorrect title?
They will certainly benefit from a home barn for nighttime and you herding them into the area you want them to clear during the day. It’s what we do with our goats.
Goats love to jump and climb on things, would be good for them to have more to climb on and also give them a way of getting away from the dogs, congrats on getting more bee's ♥
I love when you talk abute your failior and sucseses❤❤❤
Texas Beeworks has most of her videos showing how she saves the comb. So interesting.
I'm here to see Macho Man Randy Savage. Also what ever happened to Jimi Hendrix? Thought he went to Tom's farm? Will you give us an update on how he's doing and how big he's gotten?
Nope, I'm pretty sure he mentioned on one of his streams that he wont talk about it
I know form experience that goats loves jumping up and down on things, Lamb and sheep are the same way, It's from the time when they free roamed and still free roam in rural areas. And also morgan, i think you probably could introduce the goats with the chickens and have them roam the plot, just make sure they know where they suppose to stay or fence in the areas that you don't want them, you could use those fences with electricity to do that and eventually they will learn.
You should reach out to Erika Thompson, the bee keeper. She's the best and calm, and she loves her bees. Would be fun to see you guys collab or somehow work together. She's helping save the bees and also flowers to plant around your farm.
Also, why is Abby house so full of tall weeds 😮
You can use one or two of the large bolders you have to give the goats a bit of a "hill" to climb goats love that ... but of course needs to be far away from everything that they cant use it to jump out ^^
Goats like to have stuff to climb on, one girl I follow has what looks like tractor tires halfway buried in the ground, and those huge spools that I think holds wire or something, shes made them walkways to get from one to the other and one of her platform areas has a plastic slide that are usually for human kids but her goats seem to like it. 😄
wonder how many are raging that he dint use rubber band to secure the bee comb to the frames
😆
I saw people bury tires halfway for goats, especially old tractor tires. Might be a fun thing to do before/after the ground freezes :)
Goats like to climb on things, so I hope you can give them something to climb on.
LOL. "I'm gonna attach this comb to the frame", proceeds to just shove the comb into the box. I havent read the comments, so someone may have already told you about this: You need to use a knife to cut the comb from where it's hanging and then use rubber bands to hold the comb into the frames. These are the mistakes that are made when you insist on calling your bee suit a "costume".
Morgan, keep a primatene mist inhaler around unless allison can get you epinephrine. If god forbid, you had an anaphylaxis reaction it can help keep you alive. Along with benadryl capsules.
Ever since I saw the Trailer park boys episode when Mr Lahey wore the Indiana jones costume and Randy wore the Bee Costume and they were adult cosplaying….seeing Bee and costume in the same sentence hits different now 😂
Yay! They stayed. Maybe they felt bad about the shots fired! 🐝 🐝 🐝
