Matte Finish
The bin had a matte finish. The bins must be completely smooth. Like Glass smooth. Not pretty smooth or somewhat smooth. Even on smooth sides if it is misted with hard water the mineral deposits over time can give them something to grip as can dust and dirt accumulation over...

Friends dont let friends get lobster roaches
Hissers are pretty much shell and fat, do not reproduce as fast as other roaches more suitable as feeders, and the nymphs can be hard to contain even with some of the roach barriers available such as vaseline, among others.
When cockroaches...

and rodent size insects:
The mouse is a young adult female pygmy mouse, Mus minutoides. 3 newborns can fit on a dime with room to spare! Adult rodents such as these are far less fatty than pinks...
Blaberus fusca breed well and get larger than dubia and are also very narrow compared to other blaberus species. Some refer to them as the dwarf cave roach although they actually have a longer body than the Blaberus giganteus, but shorter wings. You will need considerably more than a pair to...
Male Hissers
Male Hissers. but not females, can be shipped to Florida along with discoids, green banana roaches and Blaberus craniifer as well as any native or adventive species.
Warning Colors
It seems to be more of a learned trait. Animals will try to eat one. They taste bad and the animal then learns to avoid potential prey items that have similar colors. Like the way Viceroy butterflies mimic monarch butterflies. Or like how Pseudomops roaches mimic wasps...
Roach costs
About 6 years ago we first started selling cockroaches. At that time you were lucky to be able to get more than a couple dozen at a time. Dubia were three dollars a piece! Also you must put things in perspective. When you look at the price of store bought crickets, roaches can...
No
Different needs and the crickets are also more carnivorous and will eat freshly molted nymphs and they do not tolerate humidity. There is no legitimate reason to keep the two species together. Dont be lazy.:(

It should be fine.
Do you raise these yourself and what have they been fed? If they have not been fed anything toxic they should be fine. They also get a lot bigger than silkworms dont they?

Similar but not synonymous
They look very similar to the silverfish in your basement, just mottled. They tend to be pests in bakeries where it is very hot like near the ovens or if they are in homes near water heaters. They are called firebrats because their parents are arsonists who move...
Different species
These are related to but not the same as regular silverfish. They do not drink water but get their moisture from humidity. They also do best at much hotter temperatures. 100-106 degrees farenheit. So they wont infest your house if they get loose. Although they have been...
Wild caught feeders
To be safe dont use wild caught as feeders. Use them as breeders, and to be safe use the second generation of captive bred as feeders. Seperate the adults from the eggs before they hatch to further decrease risk of spreading parasites. Its how our isopods were done among...
Variety
Apologies for your misunderstanding variety for the sake of variety when the feeders are nutritionally inferior is what is meaningless such as house crickets or mealworms. When feeding nutritious variations such as katydids, snails, roaches, locusts and mantids then variety means...
Katydids
Katydids are an excellent staple. As for leaf eating insects a classic example of one with a favorable calcium to phosphorous ratio is silkworms. Silkworms are more nutritious when fed an exclusive diet of mulberry leaves as opposed to chow. Phasmids which are commonly fed oak...
