A. Hello mom normally after the age of one animal milk can be introduced to him , try to give cows milk as that is slightly easier to digest than Buffalo milk , opt to give tonned milk first and not a full fat milk .. if still he shows same symptoms then consult a doctor could possibly be lactose intolerance
