Welcome back to Ranchette Dreams! Today, Karine pulls Tim into Bunny Bootcamp as we build DIY winter rabbit shelters for all our bunnies on the ranch.

These simple plastic-bin shelters are perfect for keeping outdoor rabbits warm, dry, and protected during cold-weather months. If you’re looking for an easy, affordable homestead project to winterize your rabbit setup, this is it!

HORSE DOWN! Diesel gave us a major scare this week — and Tim’s wallet still hasn’t recovered. 💸😂 After spending 3 days at the vet, Diesel is finally home, and in this episode we take you along for the full recovery update, the mare introductions, and the chaos that follows. We start the morning driving up to the stables to check on Diesel and see how he’s doing after his emergency stay. He’s happy to be home, but now it’s time for the big moment… meeting the mares. Cue: Western showdown music. 🤠🔥 Karine is nervous. Tim is laughing. The mares are basically forming a gang. And Diesel? Just trying to survive Day 1 back at the ranch. 😂 Back at the barn, Tim pretends to “help” Karine clean stalls (🤣 yeah… no he didn’t). Instead, he supervises like a true ranch foreman. Karine then puts him to work feeding Diesel — where Tim learns he is not the expert he thought he was. The next day we take Diesel to the pasture to mingle with the mares again, and it turns into a full-blown standoff. Kicks, squeals, and Karine on high alert! We wrap up by getting Diesel settled for the day and heading home — where Tim immediately announces he’s starving and demands Karine cook for him. (We’ll let you guess how that went. 😂) 🐴 Thanks for watching Ranchette Dreams! We post a full weekly video + shorts all about ranchette life, horses, ranch chores, real estate, and life in Texas. 👇 COMMENT BELOW: Should Diesel get his own “Welcome Home” celebration after last week’s scare? #RanchetteDreams #HorseDown #DieselTheHorse #HorseEmergency #VetBills #RanchLife #EquestrianLife #TexasLiving #BarnVlog #HorseRecovery #MareDrama

What started as a simple morning — walking the dogs at the lake and getting some video editing done — suddenly turned into one of the biggest surprises Karine has ever pulled on me. She showed up later with this look on her face… and that’s when I knew something was up. But I was NOT expecting a horse. A whole horse. That we now apparently own. 😂 Meet Diesel, an older auction rescue who clearly needed some love, groceries, and a second chance. Karine’s heart is huge, and the moment she saw him, she knew he was coming home with us — even if I didn’t know about it yet! In today’s video: ✔️ We start the day at the lake with the dogs ✔️ I get surprised with a brand-new horse ✔️ We clean his stall and help him settle in ✔️ Diesel takes his first steps toward a better life He may be rough around the edges, but Karine is determined to bring him back to health just like she’s done with her other horses. This is the beginning of Diesel’s new chapter — and you’re here for Day 1. Welcome to the chaos, the heart, and the fun of ranch living. 🤠❤️

Hey y’all! We’re Tim and Karine Taylor, the couple behind Ranchette Dreams — where life’s a little wild, a little muddy, and always Taylor’d just right. What started as a small ranchette with a few animals turned into a full-blown lifestyle — horses, goats, dogs, chickens, and more laughs (and projects) than we can count. Between Karine’s animal adventures and Tim’s “organized chaos,” we’re sharing the real, unfiltered side of country living — the hard work, the heart, and the happy hours that make it all worth it. So grab your boots and your sense of humor — this is The Taylor’d Ranch Life, and we’re just getting started. 🤠🌾🐴

Rain’s Coming & Hay’s Flying! The rain’s rolling in, and that means one thing — barn prep time! We’re feeding the horses, hauling hay, cleaning up, fixing leaks, and trying to outrun the Texas weather before the skies open up. Of course, things never go as planned. Karine can’t resist giving Tim a hard time — first for stressing over covering the Halloween characters (because clearly, they need to stay dry), and then for getting dirtier than the horses at the stables. Meanwhile, Karine somehow ends up doing most of the hay hauling while Tim offers “supervisory guidance.” 😅 From dog food on the smoker to barn leaks, muddy boots, and a well-earned happy hour at sunset, this episode kicks off our life on the ranchette — a mix of chaos, critters, and laughter. Pull up a chair (or a hay bale) and join us for the first ride of The Taylor’d Ranch Life. 🤠🐴🌾🍻 👉 Subscribe to follow along every week — where the work’s real, the animals are spoiled, and the laughs come easy. #RanchetteDreams #TheTaylordRanchLife #TexasLiving #RanchLife #BarnVibes #CountryHumor #HappyHourAtTheBarn
