Is Chicken Safe for Babies?
- When your baby is ready for solids at around 6 months, chicken is a great first protein to start with! Chicken puree for baby is a healthy, relatively clean source of protein, and is easy to digest.
At What Age Can Chicken Be Given to Babies?
- Chicken puree can be served to babies as early as 6 months once baby is ready for solids, and they can continue to eat it through the rest of their childhood and onward– always be sure to keep an eye out for allergic reactions, and wait a few days before switching to different proteins!
- As baby ages, they’ll require larger portions, but remember to start small. At 6 months, they’re ready for very small portions of chicken puree, around 3 tablespoons per day. At around 9 months, they’ll be ready for more daily servings of 3 tablespoon portions. The bigger and older they get, the more you can gradually feed chicken to your baby.
