Big rumpled gilt/top not matching

Gilt I sold this spring, has heavy muscle through rump and ham area but top size does not match. I have 3 littermates at home and they are all proportionate top and rump.

Family is feeding an ADM base 18% with 3.75% fat. Current weight 180#. They have every Honor additive I think you can buy as well on the farm. They have been adding 2 oz heavyweight per day. I have asked they increase that to at least 4 oz for a week at least and see if her top expands.

I believe she can handle 6 oz per day and would like to work toward that and possibly more since her base is at 3.75% fat.

Is there anything also they can add to increase her top shape?


Thanks
