when their head is bigger across than the length of the pinkie but they are very fatty so do it sparingly

yes you can as a treat only. 1 or 2 day old mice only. Do it only occasionally. IF the dragon is big enough. The Dragon should be full grown and adult which is roughly around 18 months old.Bearded Dragon Breeders will feed pinkies to females they are getting ready to breed. It bulks them up and helps with eggshell hardness. The pinkie provides fat and calcium.

Here's something else to take into consideration, every dragon I've met that has been fed pinkies, starts to think that fingertips look like food. I can see feeding them to a female that you're trying to breed for added nutrients, but other than that or rehab from severe malnutrition, I'd steer away from it, myself.
