They have eaten all the concentrates the last couple of days although I have reduced the amount I'm giving them to avoid waste. They love the grass though and get through two full buckets twice a day, so they are eating.

Thought I'd give an update. As soon as the temperatures dropped slightly, they started eating more and Pom's yield went back to 4 pints a day. Even though it's been pretty hot the last coupe of days, they are still eating so I think their bodies must have acclimatised to the heat now.

Thanks for all the support and advice.  :bouquet:
