I don't think the top shelf will ever catch up with the bottom one. I am hoping that if there is more growth on a slower pace that maybe the effects won't be as drastic. Like I said this came on in a 4 to 6 week. Very drastically. so she must of had a Quick growth spurt, maybe too extreme.I really don't know though, I plan on keeping her on a nice steady diet all winter and into the spring.she will never be hungry I guarantee it.
