I don't know whether Koko loves milk products ( I not give him), becuase I don't sure that is a good for him.
May Greys drinks fresh milk or eat yoghourt or cheese?

No, they do not have the enzyme lactase which is required to digest the lactose - the natural sugar - in dairy products such as milk and soft cheese and regular feeding will produce diarrhoea and inflammation of the gut.
They can have yoghurt and hard cheese in small quantities because bacterial activity has converted the lactose in these products.
