Maybe it isn't the world's best decision. Bigby doesn't know. But he told other people that he wanted to take care of the people of this town, and isn't this exactly the sort of moment where he's got to step up and hold himself to those words? Sure, this girl may have some supply left as she's saying, but it sounds like stretching that out won't last her for very long either.
If she drinks from him now, then at least it means she'll need to stretch them for one less meal. And Bigby-- Well, he'll just have to trust that the now less terrified girl isn't lying about what she's saying. That she really won't take that much blood.
Still, even with his lack of certainty, his words do sound sure. It sounds like he didn't even really have to think about what he was going to say, right before he said it.
"That'll help, right? One less time you have to find some other source."
And if it goes well, then maybe he'll have strengthened back up enough for her to drink again by the time she's gotten through that.. TruBlood, or whatever that stuff is. Bigby gets that it things can be difficult when you don't exactly eat conventional meals.
