Hey man I personally wont do it the crickets might just nibble on the molting roaches and fight for food and stuff and eat the young roaches.

Dont do it. Crickets will eat your roaches.

I do and still am and added about 30 more pin heads with my forest roach colony just the other day.

As long as you have enough food in the tank they don't touch each other. In the wild crickets and roaches live together The first ten crickets I added are all full grown and busy getting ready to lay eggs.

Very interesting observation I added a cricket to feed one of my tarantulas. There wore two forest roaches in the tank
One of the female roaches chased the cricket all over the tank.
But when adding the crickets to the roaches they are fine with each other.

So you might get a different reaction but try it can't hurt.
