Checkered Whiptail Lizard

Im currently keeping one and Ive heard that whiptails will eat greens, grapes, and habiscus flowers? Is this true? Right now im feeding mealworms and crickets to her, but I want to know If I can supplement the diet with plant matter.

Checkered Whiptail Lizard

Anyone? Also, one of the care sheets on the Great Basin whiptail said they could eat plant matter. Im really just wondering if the Checkered lizard can or not. If anyone has any experieance with this lizard it would be great. This is the species that is all female and does not need a mate to lay eggs.
