When Jemma came home at 2 pounds. She ate 1/4 cup thru the day. Sometimes less. She is now (6.5 months,) eats about 1/2, maybe a little more, cup a day. She just celebrated her 4 pound mark. It does depend on their age and weight. Hope this helps a little. right now free feed her. You might have to hand feed her for now because this is all new for her. Make sure if you are giving her food other than what the breeder gave you, that you don't start her on the new food right away. It has to be done slowing. 3/4 her old food mixed with 1/4th food new. 3 days. Then 50-50 for 3 days and saw on. If you see her stools getting too loose, back up and continue for a few more days before adding more new food. It's early and I'm waiting for coffee so my thoughts are still scrambled.
Congrats on your little one. Sounds like such joy!!
