Regulus does a little free roaming in the back yard and finds the wild blue berries.

Those blue berries are not blueberries. Blueberries, Variccinium sp. have small leaves and green twigs. I do not know where you live but to me that plant looks like poke berry. I do not know if it is toxic to Cyclura. Wild birds like to eat them. Poke berry must be OK because your animal looks great!

Thanks for correcting me. Rhinos have been documented gorging almost exclusively on poisonous apples and toxic caterpillars when seasonally available on mona island. Regardless, I should be more cautious about what I allow them to chomp on. They sometimes eat tuledendrum leaves that fall off the trees in the yard -- I need to get some mulberry growing.
