This is in the FAQ. At present people can only have one set of parents. You can add them as usual with an explaination in Bio notes

Just a thought: you could add a partner to this person, keep it blank (eg gender unspecified) and in the name section put something along the lines of '[Person's] Biological Family From Here'. Then 'grow' their biological family from that box. Hope this helps!

Another possbility would be to have two seperate trees one for the persons adoptive family and one for the biolgoical family. You could also denote in their bio that they are adopted and list their biological parents there if known.
