It is unlikely that the mouse bones will cause any problems because they are solid bones and very small. Eating anything unusual however can result in an upset stomach so watch him closely for the next 24 hours for any vomiting, diarrhea or not eating well. You may not see any ill effects however but you never know. Best of luck and please feel free to post any additional questions.
