Farm Vlog – Exhausting Day on the Farm and a New Puppy Playpen for Our Great Pyrenees

Welcome back to Andersen Acres! Some days on the homestead are just a lot—and today was one of those days. Cold, cloudy, and full of little projects that added up to big-time exhaustion. This shorter-than-usual farm vlog gives you a peek into one of our more chaotic days on the hobby farm.

While we didn’t film everything, the main project we did tackle was building a brand-new outdoor pen for Tequila’s Great Pyrenees puppies! These future livestock guardian dogs now have a safe space to explore the outdoors during the day. We placed the pen right outside the house for easy supervision, and mama Tequila can hop in and out to check on them whenever she wants.

We also check in quickly on the bunnies, our garden, and the new litter of barn kittens—because even on exhausting days, life on the farm keeps moving.

Whether you're raising animals, dreaming of homesteading, or just love adorable puppies, this vlog offers a slice of real life on a working hobby farm.

Farm Vlog – Rainy Day, Rabbit Reveal, and Chicks in the Storm!

Welcome back to Andersen Acres! Today’s farm vlog is short and soggy—because it poured! After weeks of dry weather and wildfire smoke, this rain is a blessing. We’re hopeful it means the end of the wildfire threat in our area. 🌧️

With the downpour keeping us mostly inside, we didn’t tackle many outdoor chores—but we did check on the chicks we recently moved outdoors. A few of them braved the rain, but don’t worry—they found shelter when it got heavy. 🐥

The big surprise today? Meet Smeagol, our newest rabbit! She’s a gorgeous solid blue Rex, named after the Lord of the Rings character. She’s also pregnant, so in just a couple of weeks, we’re hoping to welcome a litter of baby Rex kits! 🐇💙

Thanks to the rain, the garden got a much-needed soak and we got a rare day off from watering. Come hang out with us for a cozy, low-key farm day.
