Mine are kept just about bone dry, but you do get some that get their egg sac stuck outside, but easily replaced by others that are growing.

I feed my roaches cat biscuits oranges and carrots mostly. I dont give them water or gel.

if it works for you then theres probably no reason why not to keep them dry. i keep my food Dubias dry simply because humidity would be a pain to maintain in a kricket keeper. Dubias carry their eggs so its probably not as much of a problem as with Turkistans. they drop their egg cases and without humidity they either dont hatch, or take forever, so i keep my Turkistans high in humidity. in the wild Dubias live in the tropics in rainforest areas, so humidity is in the 70's and upward though.
