Well what works for the individual is always the best.

I think crickets are better nutrition wise if well gutloaded. They don't have the shell roaches do.

But the worst downside is that roach escapees live very long and are very unacceptable to most. Crickets have a short lifespan so escapees don't live long and I don't really have an issue with a cricket walking along the floor. There just needs to be other people than reptile people in people's lives. To a woman a roach is a roach and gross regardless of whether it's a feeder or not. lol.

Oh and only adult crickets make noise and you get used to it anyway.

Believe me if I could get away from crickets I would. All live food now that you mention it. Just gotta love my Iguana and Uromastyx.
