Hi everyone, I have been trying Poppy on pellets (NutriBird) and ZuPreem Fruitblend but soaking in water first as it is a little easier for her to eat however she still makes her "feed me" noises and lifts her wings like she still wants the formula instead though she is 2 months old, shouldn´t she be starting to eat pellets now completely? She will eat the pellets but mostly plays with it with her tongue.

Thanks

Maybe getting smaller pellets? Or maybe crushing the pellets into a powder, then adding water/organic juice and making little balls out of them?

She should be eating some solid foods now.
 
She has been eating the NutriBird brown oval shaped pellets but she isn´t too keen on the others. I don´t think they´re all that big? I soaked them in water and they became softer to eat she has been eating quite a few but still needs to learn how to grasp the food with her foot but in time.

She loves apples too and fruit smoothies (homemade natural)
