Sounds yummy. Seems like you've got your bases covered. Here are some foods I've had success with; you might wanna try these, too.

cat food
oak leaves
lettuce
oranges
bananas
yams + sweet potatoes

Sounds like you're doin' good. Congratulations on the babies! How many adults did you start with?

P.S.- in my experience, mites don't go for leafy things like oak leaves and lettuce, which is an added bonus if you ever have a mite problem.

P.P.S- it sounds like you've read this already, but feeding 'roaches protein-rich things like fish flakes or cat food is essential if you wanna eliminate cannibalism. Down at the bottom of this page is a bit about protein.
