Personally I'd only do it maybe once a year or not at all. My two eldest beardies don't even like pinkies so if you get a couple as a very rare treat then it could be a hit or miss if the beardie never had it before.
Also in the wild it would be quite rare for beardies to come across mice and then eat them, especially baby mice so it wouldn't and shouldn't be a part of their average diet.
I know some people think that protein is protein and it's all the same but how animals digest mammal/animal protein and insect protein, and plant protein varies quite a bit.
what are other treats that would be good for her? her adoptive bday is coming up and i was thinking of getting her a pinky but I'm open to other things as well
well i got her 15 silk worms and 15 horned worms. she ate all the silk worms in one go and then later that day ate half the horned, she finished the rest of them the next morning so id say she likes them...
they are given to leopard geckos in preparation for mating. (even that is only once a year) but other than that Ive never heard of giving them to dragons. So I'd pass on the pinkies.
this pet shop is a reptile only store, they have dozens of species from full sized monitors to beardies to spiders/snakes/pet 1200.00 show mice (what ever that is....)
Well that doesn't necessarily mean they are right. According to this site (which members on here trust) http://www.beautifuldragons.com/Nutrition.html , Pinkies are 'questionable' and VERY high in fat. If something is 'questionable', I ain't feeding it to my animal. Want something high in calcium? Try black soldier fly larvae.
