How much should I feed drake and how many times a day? He is 8 weeks and 2 days young
Plus what's the best food for him at this age?

All depends on the brand of food. So I find out. More expensive foods like Blue Buffalo are only 4.5 cups per day. Cheaper foods can be as much as 6-7 cups per day. I'd say at 8 weeks he should be about 5 cups per day but that is dependant on what brand.
There should be a chart on the bag that tells you how much.

The food he is on right now is kibbles & bits or bites forgot. It says 1-2 1/4 cups a day. I thought this seemed a Lil low. I plan on changing it soon. My wifes poodle eats it so when the bag is done Ima change. This seem too low to u? Any brand suggestions?

i am using diamond puppy elle is 16 wks

Feed a puppy food for sure as puppy food has vitamins and minerals etc that puppies need in alot more quantities than adult dogs.
