Baby dubia question

[Chewbecca]

Are baby dubia roaches any bigger than 2-3 week old crickets?

I'm getting a crested gecko tomorrow (along with 3 other leos. EEEK so excited!!), and he was hatched on 1/8/09.
He currently will eat 2-3 week old crickets, but I am having dubias shipped this week and the seller is including baby dubias.
And I want to know if these are about the same size and wondering if my crested might be able to eat them.

Thanks!

I would stick to crickets until you have a steady dubia colony going. Baby dubias are a little smaller than the little papers you get from a hole puncher.
