Roaches should be just fine but you could try silks to see if it makes a difference. My chameleon is much healthier since I switched him to silks and crickets instead of dubias.

Other than that idk... but there are better forums to ask on.

Can you tell if a spider is sick before it dies?

Like what happens. You just wake up to find it on its back?

nah it will usually cough or sneeze for a few days before it dies. Or get really bad diarrhea.
