I actually used to work at a pet store that had these little guys. We had no problems feeding them pinheads and they seemed to thrive and be very healthy. You just have to feeds them tonnes of pinheads though.

They will readily accept pinheads and other prey, the problem is that they are not receiving the nutritional composition that they need to survive. On a cricket diet, I've never seen an adult horned lizard live longer than a few months. If you start with a hatchling or juvie, they end up stunted and suffer a very abbreviated lifspan.
