Crickets and Dubias Together?

I probably wouldn't due to the crickets being pretty vicious and the rate at which they die off (and decay) might cause problems for the roaches. If you want to give it a try though I'd merge just part of each group to see how they react together for a while before committing all of your feeders to that kind of setup.

I agree with what cooper said, though dubia Roaches' shells look pretty hard, though I've never used them myself. Also, don't dubia Roaches thrive in higher humidity while crickets aren't too tolerant of it? It'd be interesting to see how crickets and dubias would be together.

Actually .... I think the roaches will end up taking over and will likely eat the crickets .
I found this out by accident once , a domestic roach found it's way into bin I was using the time to keep my crickets in (it was a lot larger than the crickets) and it made a meal of the crickets.
hobbyist breeders I know who have woodie and cricket colonies all keep the woodies and crickets separated. Some even have insect breeding tub racks in their reptile sheds or reptile rooms.
