I started a colony of dubias in the winter for my animals. Female Rosehair tarantula, 2 OBT slings, leopard gecko, 7 line skink, scorpion. Well with the exception of the scorpion, none of them show any interest in the dubias. So what roach is recommended?

Blatta lateralis. Doesn't burrow or climb away, smaller, and much more active than dubia and most other roaches. They have one of the best acceptance records of any feeder.

I had a tarantula that wouldn't eat dubias... She was very hungry for along time. Now she eats them no problem.
