I am confused. I want to make my own roach chow and have watched several videos on recipes from various people. Half of recipes call for high protein items like dog or cat food, fish food and such. Others say not to use these high protein items due to Uris acid build up and they use stuff like instant oats cornflakes wheat crackers etc. want to get opinions on what is correct.

You can feed your dubias the same that you feed with your beardies. All veggies, some fruit, like AHBD said all plant based 
Cheap weetabix blocks crumbled in a shallow dish - replenish when empty. Should be within 48 hrs.
Any veg and fruit. Remove and replace daily if not all eaten.
Safest to stay under 13% protein. No petfood, fish flakes etc.
Mine are happy enough and starting to breed. In 2 months I've had one known death.
