Farm Vlog - Smoke, Puppies, and Chicks: A Hot, Quiet Day on the Hobby Farm


Welcome back to Andersen Acres! In today’s hobby farm vlog, we’re sharing a glimpse of a quiet but smoky summer day on the homestead. With the wildfire smoke rolling in on the wind, we kept things simple but steady. Our 3-day-old Livestock Guardian Dog puppies—Tequila’s newest litter—are doing great, and we’re excited to watch them grow!

We also moved our baby chicks out to the brooder where they can safely thrive and enjoy more space. Over in the rabbitry, I attempted to breed Libra (our sassy Holland Lop doe) to Capricorn, but she wasn’t having it today—maybe tomorrow! And of course, with the heat and dry conditions, it was time to water all the garden plants to help them cope with the scorching sun.

Farm Vlog - No Rain, Just Smoke, But the Animals Keep Growing!


Welcome back to Andersen Acres! In this week’s farm vlog, we’re talking about the dry weather and how much we’re wishing for rain. With wildfires raging in our province and the one next door, we could really use a good soaking. Even through the smoke and heat, life on the homestead keeps moving forward!

Our Great Pyrenees, Tequila, is still doing an amazing job caring for her newborn puppies, who are growing strong and healthy. We’ve got baby chicks hatching in the incubator, kittens getting bigger and more adventurous, and three of our young ducks graduated from the brooder to the outdoor pen. It’s a full week of hobby farm animal updates!

If you love homesteading, raising animals, and seeing what real life looks like on a working hobby farm, you’ll enjoy this behind-the-scenes look at our busy days.

Farm Vlog - Wildfire Prep With Livestock, Newborn Puppies, and Hatching Chicks


In this week’s Andersen Acres farm vlog, we’re facing the return of wildfires in our region. While we’re not currently under evacuation orders, many local farms are—and it’s a harsh reminder of just how important it is to be prepared. We’re sharing how we approach emergency planning when you have large farm animals, livestock guardian dogs, poultry, and more to think about.

You’ll also get a heartwarming update on Tequila’s brand-new puppies—just one day old and thriving under her watchful eye. Plus, our incubator is buzzing with life as the first baby chicks start to hatch! Gwen the cat has also made a bold move, relocating her kitten from the shed back under the deck (because cats, of course).

If you love animals, are interested in homesteading, raising livestock, or just enjoy watching the ups and downs of life on a small hobby farm, this vlog is for you.
