Need to add additional water lines from well head to barn and tiny home

I have a submerged well pump that has one main line coming to main house where pressure and bladder tank is located. I need 2 additional water lines, 1 for just refilling water bins for livestock, the other going to tiny house with sink and shower. Where is it recommended to tie in? Will I need another bladder tank in tiny house?

The best/easiest place to tap off is from your house after the pressure tank. Add a valve and appropriately sized pipe, and go outside to where you need to go.

If you tap off the well-head, you're going to have to deal with separate well switches, pressure tanks, and handling the wiring between all of them. It's potentially doable, but gets more complicated.

What's the distance from the house to your tiny house and where you want the hose spigot?
