Milk is very important for babies specially in the initial days of life breast milk is very important and should be given exclusively till 5-6  months of age .
formula milk should be given only as a substitute to breast milk if due to any reason it is not sufficient to fulfill the demand of the baby. according to the age different stage of formula milk are there like stage 1 till 6 months of age stage 2  from 6 months to 12 months and thereafter stage 3 .
after one yeafr cows milk should be started and any kind of health drink powder in milk should be  used only after the completion of two years of age .

Yes I love this is normal because green colour is due to the formula milk that you are giving to the child so don’t worry about that it’s completely normal so you can continue with lactogen but make some fennel seeds into the water when you boil to make formula that will avoid gas and colic issues
