do you have any other Ideas???? |
I think stopping all treats is a good move. How old is your baby? I heard that by putting down the food for a certain period of time, if they don't eat, pick up the food bowl, do not offer again until the next meal time. Eventually they will learn to eat.
Did you try soaking the kibbles into a bit of hot water before serving? The aroma might increase their appetite. Sometimes due to teething (sore gums, etc), they might want softer food.
For my another boy, Kimchee, I mix Merrick canned food with his kibbles. He eats everything in one shot.
