Over the last 2 weeks the nights were getting into the low 40's and days in low 60's. Now the forecast in NEPA for the next week is 80's during the day and 65's at night. Since my kin slowed down a lot with the cold temps is it going to be more prone to BES with the temps going back to perfect summer temps. My kin is DAP 53 so I know normally it would have a lot of growth left.

I was wondering the same thing. I have one going at 41 DAP and it was putting on 18# per day avg last week. Hoping the warmer temps forecast will help increase the gains but also worried about it splitting open.

I'm in the same boat, but I just have to make it to Wednesday for my weigh-off
