[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 10079"] What time of day are temping them. If it is elevated early in the morning it is significant. If it is later in the day, ones the days heat starts to build, it's not unusual for their temp to increase, especially if they are black hided, don't have adequate shade or water, and are crowded so there isn't good air circulation. That's this time of year unless you are in an area that doesn;t have temperatures that are getting into the high 70's dunmovin farms > Thank you so much for your > response.
