Brief Answer:
It is safe for her to take mutton or chicken soup.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
Let me assure you that there is no problem if mutton or chicken soup made from bones or hoofs are given to a child of this age. It can be beneficial and not harmful unless of course the child faces any problems in tolerating the feeds. I doubt if that is the case.
Do not worry. Try introducing all forms of adult food low on spices and in the mashed form. Introduce one new food item a week.
Regards
