ASAP......GET THAT GRAVEL out of the cage. That is not good at all for an iguana. Either use newspapers or outdoor carpeting. Iguanas have something called a hind gut, which is pockets between the large and small intestines. If these rocks get caught in the hind-gut area, you will have serious problems with your iguana (death is very likely) I would stop reading this post and go clean the cage out now, don't wait!!
I"ll post about the eating question when you're done with the cage.
