Robert and Hannah fed the kids themselves for the first time last night. Robert's was not taking the bottle without first forcing it into his mouth until yesterday, so they were harder to feed. Now both come to the bottle on their own. George went down and got them and brought them to the deck, sooooo...
We took them to the barn after that feeding.
Later, we went back up to see how they were doing and they were outside the lot curled up against the fence, so we carried them inside the shed.
When I went up this morning about 7 am, they were curled up under the stanchion.
They are doing fine, but I sure don't want two yard billies.
They are going to have to stay at the barn. We would like to make weathers of them, but the weather is too hot to cut them now. Maybe in September. Or maybe they will just go to the sale in September.

I love the pix...and your new camera
Fleta--Andy Atchison's father John was married to Seletha Bernard (we were not sure of the last name but it was Bernard or Barnett. There was a marriage record we found.
What I am wondering is this...looks like Seletha died in 1880 and John Atchison (Andy's father) married Tammer Delaney Youngblood--daughter of Benj. Youngblood. He had a second family by her. Is this right or are these two different John Atchison's. I want to add it if it is correct but can't figure it out if it is or not. The John who married Tammer (1890 marriage) died in 1916? Is this Andy's father?
