my litter is nine weeks old and i am having the same problem. i am feeding mine a little boiled chicken each day but leave dry kibble down which they won't eat unless it's mixed with something. i am also feeding mine a little wet food in the morning, noon and night mixed with some softened dry. At this age, you need to feed her any kind of food she will eat. nine weeks is too young to take away from her mama. She is probably weaned as mine are, but having to leave all she has known as comfort, has given her a set back. try putting some dry food in the food processor, then mixing it in with a little wet food. As to how much, i think they usually eat about two tablespooons at a time but mine don't eat that much. i fix the food and if they clean the plate, they get more. i bought a nine week old puppy once and when i got home, all she would do is lick at the food. Didn't have any idea at all how to eat. i had to hand feed her for about two more weeks till she got the hang of it. |
