Let's Hatch Some Goslings (From Egg to Bird Full Process) 

Flash warning at around 9:20-9:26!! Be careful everyone!

Morgan I don’t know if it will help but a channel called A Chick Called Albert has many examples of how to best help chicks hatch. He's a very gentle individual and I learn a lot from him.

For those intrested in statistics: 2 times 12 = 24 eggs were incubated. 13 + 3= 16 live goslings. 16/24=2/3 That gives success rate of 67%. Better than previous 40-50%.

It’s amazing seeing this process, no matter how many hatching videos I watch it always amazes me.

What do you mean FEELS like a wizard. You are a FARMER you are a wizard!!! You make life from dirt or eggs. You create where most people just take.

I like it when Allison joins you in welcoming the babies to the world. They are so stinkin' cute!!

Greetings from spain :) I.m glad to see bio farming in USA... I know in your country it is hard and rare.. Keep up , and please put Toby dog in every video ;) :)

on my university campus all the geese have been having their goslings now and they're definitely big campus celebrities, everywhere they go, with the mum followed by 5-10 goslings, there's people with their phones out filming

The goslings respond to whistling, because usually the mother bird communicates with them, before and while they hatch.

This has to be one of Morgan’s best videos to date! Amazing story start to finish.

It's amazing the development difference in just one day. This was a really fun vlog.

Hatching birds are enjoyable to watch.

Morgan, buy a second cat litter scoop and use it to pick the duck/ geese eggs from the water without getting all the yucky on you...

Baby geese are so adorable they make good watch birds when they are grown

Love the gosling rave party music 🐣

Loved the hatching Timelapse. It makes me think of the strangest popcorn popper ever 😂

Absolutely adorable! I just love babies, especially gooselings (as you say it lol) and ducklings, but the chickies are cute too. The ones you had to help look almost half the size of their siblings, I hope they make it. Thanks Morgan, that was fun and educational. All is well at Gold Shaw Farm.

I hatched a bunch of chickens eggs in a homemade hatchery in my youth it was great learned alot, gave them to a farm

we had 3 out of the 4 chicks that we hatched so far this year get stuck in the egg. we think the humidity was a bit too low, so we just kept moistening the membrane so it wouldnt shrink wrap the chicks. had to assist all 4 in hatching though, and 3 out of 4 made it and are doing very well. we have a mouse problem where we are, and the mice like to pick the chicks off at the watering station when they are tiny, so this year i built a broody box that is completely mouse proof. we stick the mom and the chicks in the box with water and feed until they are about 2 weeks old, and we have a 100% survival rate with it so far. i used a plywood topped pallet (cut in half), screwed 2x2's to each corner for the walls, wrapped the floor and sides in 1/4" hardware cloth, and have a snug fitting top on it. a little bit of wood shavings, and you're ready to grow up some chicks! i gotta build probably 2 more of them now though, as we have 4 more broody chickens and we gave the 2 most consistent ones a bunch of eggs each haha! we also had 2 of our ducks go broody a few weeks ago, and -should- be getting ducklings within the next week. super excited haha!

They are absolutely adorable. Great video for an educational vantage point.

The gosling rave was EVERYTHING!!! 💖💖💖💖 Congrats on the new babies! 💜

Loved ur stories as always.... n i have yet to ever to make a suggestion.. no more flashy lights ❤❤❤

Did I see twin goslings hatch from one egg??? Wow! Cool!

We have our first goslings on our farm. Four Chinese geese and four African geese. ❤ Wicked cute!

Hi Morgan, nice to see new goslings hatching. 👍👍

You are a gentle soul. Wow, I love all babies. Congrats 🎉❤❤😊

Hey Morgan, now the cattle are going out to pasture can we have an update on the tree's and can we have an update on that tree beside the rocks in the old bird yard where Toby likes to eat the eggs you give him, also well done with the goslings they are beautiful and bring so much joy to all us viewers ❤❤❤

I love your farm. It brings me so much joy to see your videos.

They are too cute! Keep up the good work Morgan

Thanks for a great educational video. They are so adorable.

What a great video! Educational and adorable! 🐣🐥🐣🐥🐣🐥

I look forward to the goslings hatching video every year and every year you get more and more confident with the assisted hatching. Being such a great lover of our feathered friends I am sure you have watched A Chick Called Albert, this man helps so many different breeds of birds from the tiniest to quite large birds and unlike most bird specialists he thinks assisted hatching is the way forward, when the egg is under the mother bird her lying and moving around on the eggs assists any of her babies who may need a bit of help, his chosen tool with assisted hatching is a pair of tweezers as it gives him much more control in helping the baby hatch. However saying all of this I think you did a fantastic job at knowing exactly when to stop - and yes I do remember you and Alison trying so hard to save that first assisted hatch and my heart broke for you both when it all went wrong, I do not see it as a failure though because although it didn't work for you that time you learnt from it and look at you now - great job - great video - thank you Morgan for sharing the newest members of Gold Shaw Farm. Love to you Alison and all the animals on the farm with special hugs for Toby - please tell him he is still my number guardian life stock dog ❤xxxx

That rave scene=priceless.

Goslings and edm was the combo I never knew I needed.

The saying that patience is a virtue is so true. 👌 Love watching 👀 this video, Morgan. It's so interesting! It sure shows how important it is to know when to step in and assist in the process. It's a busy time at GSF.

So amazing! Congratulations. They are super cute. Been watching you for 3 springs. It never gets old.

I love goslings..so stinkin'cute!! I once had a setting hen hatch 3 for me, I also bonded them to me.... They were so protective when they grew into adulthood.

So cute!! Good job on the assist!!❤❤

Absolutely amazing 👏 ❤ Thank you for such a well done video. Goodness, theyre all so precious 🎉

The first thing I thought when I saw your new incubator machines was, "Oh wow! Those look like the old oven thing mum used to use to roast chicken!" and then I smacked myself in the face because... 😂 I love the video of the fluffy goslings. It's a repeat of information from years past, but I love the way you made it easily educational and entertaining for any new viewers that might have a look at it and for old viewers as well. Thank you for it!

I freaking love the Goslings rave party lol

New life is always magical ❤

Love love your farm ❤

Nice work on the hatch assists, Morgan!

That EDM track had no right going so hard. Very well done Morgan or Editor!!

I’m not sure how much work you’re willing to put into the abides that have trouble hatching on their own.. but I’ve had amazing success with peeling the shell with my fingers before placing the baby in an “ICU” unit (for us that is a box of some sort with a towel and heat lamp. Ones that are still attaches to them membrane we only take the top half of the shell away from where it is still connected. We keep an eye on them and put hen healer on any wounds. For example one of ours had an injury to its head and another had skin that didn’t close on the abdomen fully, that baby also had some flesh protruding from the abdomen so I applied sugar to help it shrink down. All of our assisted hatch babies have been doing wonderfully with this routine :)

I hope the little ones all make it. Such cuties all of them!

Morgan, you are a treasure.❤

Got home a bit ago .. perfect timing ❤❤

I just got 2 babies, now my most favorite creature on the homestead, thank you for your crip content brother

Great. now my chicks are all yelling after hearing all the peeping from this side of the house... xD

So happy to see the assisted hatching was a success this year. Extra goslings to make my day a lil better as I lost my pet a few days ago. New lives to replace the ones that go always puts a smile on my face 😊

'Those mother geese can be quite protective...' I am still surprised every time I see a goose how small they are, because it will be forever ingrained in my memory that time I was chased by a goose that was taller than I was. In her defense, I was chasing her goslings. In my defense, I was five years old and they were f*king adorable.

I love watching your videos you and your animals comfort me and make me feel better

This a super rewarding video today 😊

Classic video! Great stuff bro.

I remember watching you and your wife trying to save one pipping bird a few years ago... It was so heart breaking to see that you were unable to save it. Glad you're trying to save them!

This is so fasinating ❤ ty for documenting

Morgan you are a pro. Love the way your videos are so into every step with great captures and explanations. This video was very interesting and educational as all of your videos are.👌🏻 Time gone by my husband’s Mom and Dad had layers 200 would sell eggs to local grocery money received spent on groceries. In the 1950’s. Life then same today. Take care. Louisiana

that goose hiss is something else: otherworldly, unreal

Did you once have twin goslings? Did they survive? Also, I love how the goslings stretched out their necks and greeted you whenever you started talking. They definitely see you as mama.

I love watching all the animals in your video's. My weekly moments of zen.

yay goslings are here now. Best season of the year is spring. Cows are out and happy in the grass, gosslings, ducklings and chick hatch and everything just explodes into growth.

I love watching hatching videos. Beautiful goslings. Some day we will be able to hatch again

They're so cute. Hope the scraggly new ones gain strength !!🎉

Baby goslings are my favorite 💛 I am so excited for next year for hopefully more at my place.

I just love seeing the goslings hatch every year, they are so fluffy and cute

I look forward to this ep every year.

I love your Farm

So wonderful to watch them hatch ❤

What a beautiful video ❤

Bravo again. Reminds me why I first tuned in.

I enjoyed the gosling rave clips. Fuzzball time-lapse footage and EDM is a combo I didn’t know I needed until now. Club Cobra [Chicken]. They are so cute. Goslings always seem way more social or inquisitive than the shy ducklings.

Quite possibly my favourite video you’ve done 🐣

So cute how they were all talking to you at the end. You're the only thing they've ever seen...you're mom.

You've lost a ton of weight, you look great dude!!!!!

Thank you for the flash warning like truly. I get migraines so easy from flashing and have seizures. Thank you.

I actually lolled at the gosling rave. Thanks for that!

Best choices of music on RU-vid!

I really like the new Generation of Gen Z Techno Ducks

Thanks for this video. The chopstick looks like a good tool for assisted hatch.

Does the pipping cause the other chicks to start hatching? I am wondering if that's why the last three you assisted look so runty. There weren't as developed (a couple days later) but the pipping surrounding them caused them to start hatching anyway. Of course, they all started incubation at the same time and my knowledge of bird incubation is based almost entirely on watching videos by a guy homesteading in vermont and making videos about it 8)

You've continued to improve on your editing skills! This was a really fun one, though I know nowadays a flashing light warning would probably be included during your dance party xD Loved all the music selections too!

Hatching and raising goslings has become my absolute favorite thing this season.....I can see why you do this now. Geese are so much more emotionally intelligent than any of our other poultry, and I love that challenge ❤-Mrs.NG

I love how they seem to help each other get out off the egg

I enjoy the rave party music for those goslings 😂😂😂

The gosling dubstep rave is one of the best things I've seen in a while! 😂

Hatching went well this year, I hope that is a harbinger of how well the hatchlings will do, They are such delicate little things - I'm hoping the best for the three little newest.

I think they respond to the whistling because it sounds a bit like their parents. The man in A Chick Called Albert whistles to eggs that are hatching to encourage them to keep going.

They are so cute!

Great job Morgan on the assisted hatching!! When I lived in the country side by the peach & pecan orchards (I live south) I raised an entire little duck farm and had about 50 ducks + some geese at one time. I had a blast hatching them. My hatching success rates were high, and I did assist a few each time, in my assisted hatching, normally only 1 in every 10 ducklings didn't make it, which proves this is worth practicing. And all the ducks grew to be healthy and able. There is so shame in helping a domestic animal, that's their propose if for us to intervene. So I got pretty good at it. Just break the shell on the fat side (where the head should be.) help the head come out, and leave them in the incubator to absorb the yolk and maintain the moisture in the incubator to soften the shell and membrane. Then they manage to kick out of the shell when they gained the energy from their yolk. -If their belly is ever bleeding from their cord ripping from the yolk, pack the bleeding with corn starch until it stops bleeding. Then leave them in the incubator and reduce the humidity to help scab over the cord. You can put a dry towel under them to help keep them dry too. You can save an extra life this way, and I saved every bleeder! -Hope this helps. Good luck on the rest of your hatching Morgan! I really miss doing this, but now I live in the city. I miss all them quackers and my beautiful buff goose Peach.

This was so interesting, it made me happy. All of the Goslings are cute, I hope they don't end up having problems. You'll give them good names.

Happy hatching! Congrats on your weight loss!!!!

Great film.

You did a good job w the assist.

Is it just me or did some of the first goslings out actually help the late comes get out of their shell?? 😮

I love to see a good poltryowner help the babies getting out of the eggs. I always helped when ours had issues

I share this video to my friends on Facebook.

Hi Morgan, small request from someone who has light sensitivities: could you possibly add a flashing lights warning in the captions before the gosling rave? Otherwise loved this years gosling video and hope everything goes well!

Hatching anything is so exciting. I might not use my incubator this year tho bc I have a very broody hen.. Every time I hear the word gosling it makes me think of the meme with Ryan Gosling (a goose and her goslings) 😂
