Pinkies

[stoned philosopher]

How big should a Bearded be before being about to safely eat mouse pinkies?

From what I understand its never really safe. The bones even though they are soft can still cause impaction. I could be wrong though, someone more experienced will have an answer soon

Well I know its deffinitly safe for a full grown adult, but the pinki has to be super young with not even 1 hair yet, there bones are still cartilage and can be digested. But can a younger dragon safley be given a treat once a month or only full grown?

Personally I don't recommend it ever. There's no reason to give your dragon pinkies, and there are plenty of other things (like fruit) you can give them as treats a few times a month. Unless you just think its "cool."

If that's the case, buy a snake or maybe a pacman frog. But even the folks in the pacman frog forums don't recommend that, and those guys are straight up 100% carnivorous.

Its good if your adult bearded isnt up to par and need to beef them up. The extra fattines is the reason to feed pinkies. But this should be done rarely and if needed.
