He doesn't appear to want formulae anymore, two weeks later where he is now ten weeks old. Is it customary not to give formulae after ten weeks of age ? I'm planning to release him soon when his siblings come down tree to explore. Simon (as I named him) will probably be strong enough to scale that palm tree himself. Any thoughts will be appreciated. Many thanks
