UNIONTOWN — You’ve probably heard of the dynamic duo of Bert and Ernie.
You may know of the Sesame Street puppets.
Or maybe you remember the cop and cab driver from “It’s a Wonderful Life.”
Uniontown now has its own version.
Bert and Ernie, half-brother Quarter Horses, both lost their mothers as infants two months ago and are being raised by their human “parents,” Julia and Wayne Hall. 
They’re like inseparable, trouble-making twin toddlers with an infant’s feeding schedule — at first, every two hours but now every four — and they’ve basically taken over life at the Halls’ rural ranch.
“We don’t go anywhere now,” Julia said. “Our life has changed.”
The foals wander around the yard while the Halls supervise.
They play in the dog’s swimming pool.
They eat the heads off Julia’s roses and other flowers.
Bert even snuck into the tack room, nosing around at the halters and bridles.
“They’re just so curious. They’re neat little turds,” Julia said.
ERNIE was born on April 12, 10 days before Bert.
At first, everything seemed fine. He nursed his mother for seven days, until she became fatally ill. She was one of the Halls’ best-producing mares, and they were devastated by the loss.
They called 10 veterinarians to try to save the mare.
