My point is, it's already in the law. "necessary shelter and food" can be said to mean proper diet and proper temperatures and humidity.
If someone attempted to feed a dog canned beans would anyone say that it equals "necessary" food? No of course not. So why would reptiles be exempt?
You need to find the proper diets by really good sources. Wikipedia doesn't count. Needs to be the likes of peer reviewed papers from scientists or published books. A case could be built upon this but I don't think anyone wants to do that kind of work.
