But are sanitized deer antlers ok for toothless? I saw them and thought they might make a cool thing to give him. It seems ok to me, he isn't much of a chewer and they have been sanitized. They where meant for dogs... And some biscuits are ok so...

Bones and antlers I know are very popular with wild rodents and are quickly gnawed to nothing in the wild. The only thing I would want to be careful of is that he isn't getting too much calcium because unlike his wild cousins, his diet is already fortified. Excess calcium can cause all sorts of problems but I'm sure as an occasional treat in his playpen that he wouldn't get enough in him to cause trouble. They are expensive though so if that's an issue then I would stick with wood.
