Has there been any report of when the children were last seen, other than the parents?
And look at you. A stable person as your parents raised you to be.
I am wondering if anyone connected to these children in the past snatched them. The disappearance being in such close proximity to Xmas makes me wonder this. Emotions run high during the holidays, and perhaps someone made an impetuous decision.
This is a wild card theory, but I can't help but hang on to the hope that they will still be found alive...against the odds.

Amateur opinion and speculation
There's been nothing but there's probably a statement coming soon. I think the chances they wandered away together are slim and none based on what we know. The dog not hitting outside the house is a pretty big thingStill nothing on these babies? I can’t help but think what are the chances that they wandered away and both are still missing and together.
Huge fan of SAR dogs, but results vary depending on the dog, the handler, their training and so forth. They are amazing, but not infallible.There's been nothing but there's probably a statement coming soon. I think the chances they wandered away together are slim and none based on what we know.

I understand they're not infallible but to not hit outside at all where the kids supposedly were?Huge fan of SAR dogs, but results vary depending on the dog, the handler, their training and so forth. They are amazing, but not infallible.

Agree that it is a notable concern.I understand they're not infallible but to not hit outside at all where the kids supposedly were?
But what are the chances that a 3 and 4 year old would be out by themselves for a week without being seen?Huge fan of SAR dogs, but results vary depending on the dog, the handler, their training and so forth. They are amazing, but not infallible.

Bam!!!But what are the chances that a 3 and 4 year old would be out by themselves for a week without being seen?
Agree it is highly unlikely they would have survived long on their own. It is my hope they were scooped up by someone related to them. That would be a criminal act, but at least they would be amongst the living.But what are the chances that a 3 and 4 year old would be out by themselves for a week without being seen?
As mom to a "rambunctious" little boy, I don't find it impossible to believe that the kids wandered away. But I cannot understand why, especially in an area full of environmental hazards, they would not call law enforcment immediately.
I am wondering how they were perceived in their prior community as well. Is there any feedback from family members, friends, co workers, neighbors?To my ears, in that clip, I was hearing "where are the boys?"
Makes me wonder, in such a small community and likely quite tight knit, how the adoptive parents were generally perceived.
Search continues for missing boys Orrin and Orson West, reported missing Monday
"Lamiya Patrick, a California City resident also told 23ABC that the believed to be foster parents have not come out of the house besides to speak to law enforcement."
“He came out and spoke to the police but he did not come out and greet the people who are trying to help find the babies,” said Patrick.
“The parents haven’t come out to say boo, or hi, or thank you for helping or anything,” added Wood."
There is so much empty land out in California City. There are so many blocks and streets that never got developed and are just are empty desert land. I hope the LE has been searching all abandoned buildings in the area. I wish these boys were getting way more media attention.

From all accounts in MSM so far, it was around 5pm when the dad was outside gathering wood, then when the boys were noticed missing, the parents searched in the house, back outside, around the neighborhood and then placed the 911 call around 6pm.
To me, there is nothing suspect about the time of the 911 call, as reported.
I didn't know that about the dogs getting better results with higher humidity. Looking at the weather records, the only one I could find that showed humidity, showed that humidity was 22% the night they had the dog out there. It was kind of up and down the whole week.I will say that dogs are more effective when there's moisture. It's very dry out there (I'm miles closer to the coast and we got down to 3% humidity where I live - which is unusual).
It's just very dry right now. I don't know the overall effect on dogs, but I know they do better in higher humidity.
I do agree it's very strange they didn't hit at all (but perhaps they didn't have a completely distinct sample to work from...but that usually results in a false positive, not a false negative. IMO).
Nothing suspect about the time, to me - but the "gathering wood" part is really strange. IMO.
Mesquite twigs? Creosote bush fragments? I can only guess that's what is meant - there's no wood out there. I don't think there are any trees at all in that neighborhood (someone please correct me if you live in California City).
