Some folks feed them to beardies that have just had a clutch of eggs to get their weight back up, but they aren't really a regular food item. Or, shouldn't be anyway.

I wouldn't recommend feeding pinkies/feeder mice to beardies as it's difficult for them to digest them.
As mentioned by Christy, they're usually just fed occastionally to gravid females, or females that just laid.
Otherwise, it's something you should stay away from

Hi, the ladies have given you good advice. I had a friend with a german giant and he used to feed his pinkies once a month, but I think german giants are an exception. This one was huge, his head was almost as big as my palm. I don't feed my dragon's pinkies, it worries me not to mention being grose. Wax worms make a nice treat and will help add weight, but then again only as a treat. Good luck J
