There's no reason to feed a pinky to a dragon. Their systems are incapable of absorbing all the the fat that even a pinky holds. Waxworms are generally a bad idea for the same reasons.



Basically, if you've got a dragon that's losing weight, or is underweight, there is no "quick fix" even for gravid females.



If they can't get their weight back up no bugs & veggies, then there's a bigger issue going on that you're not aware of.



For a good healthy dragon that's at a good weight, there's no need to consume something like a pinky even if they could cope with all the fat.
