:Anyone know where this comes from?

I saw a 50%/50% diet from Caroline McFearson (sp. is way off). This included the protien from insects. She wrote an excellent book on glider care.
I guess it makes sense, I was always giving my gliders 25% protien/75% fruits & veggies(up to 33%/67%) in their bowl, plus their insects. I guess added together, it equals out to 33%/67% up to 50%/50%.
And from what I've read and learned since then, I think this diet is completely valid.
