So it turns out my string method for measuring the OTT lengths is biased, but it is in my favor! I was using a reference section of string that I measured at 30", but I guess the knot slipped or something, because it was actually 32.5 inches when I did a QC check today.
So all of my past distance measurements have been under by 8.3%. The weights are basically distance^3 so that's a huge mess up on my part. As of this morning the estimated weights are:
1272 Brunst - OTT 341" = 833 lbs - day 73(maybe still growing just a little)
1568 Connolly - OTT 357" ============ ~950 lbs - day 67
and still growing ~20 lbs per day over the last 10 days. It might make 1000 lbs after all.
3 weeks till the weigh off.
