Not true as Cyclura have been observed in the wild eating insects, crabs, carrion of birds,fish and other prey items. Vegetation does make up most of their diet but they are opportunistic animals and will feed on various things they come in contact with in the wild. They are much more hearty of an animal then a green iguana. Kismets health issues could have been do to poor lighting, bad balanced diet or various other things but I doubt crickets alone were the culprit, unless that's all she was getting. Mine does like blueberries though and so do I....very good for you too. My cyclura only gets protein every now and then. 95% of his diet is fruits and veggies, mostly veggies...
