only once or twice a month because they contain too much fat.
they are ok for treats or gravid females i think.

Just give a couple of pinkies a month when needed. They�re mostly used for breeding females that have lost weight. I�ve had females jump up 20g by just giving pinkies. Pinkies aren�t just fat; they have a lot of other nutrients such as calcium which adds weight. A problem with pinkies is not all geckos will take them. So you�ll just have to try.
