Try Arid Nexus Badlands, the Creature Slaughter, The Dust or Frostburn Canyon.

what is it you are trying to farm? if its OP gear I have the best luck farming with Headhunter: Mercenary Day DLC

The only tubby / loot midget I seen btw is the Wildlife Preserve where all cages are you open

LOL @ the guy in the video btw

Best Chubby spawn locations

Here are the best locations to farm Chubby / Tubby enemies in Borderlands 2.


Caustic Caverns

Because Varkids have the ability to evolve into stronger versions of themselves, the Caustic Caverns is an ideal location to spawn chubby enemies. As each Varkid can potentially evolve into a Badass version and therefore is able to become a chubby. Combine this with the presence of spiderant colonies, they together make the Caustic Caverns one of the best places to farm chubbies in the game without having access to one of the DLCs. The areas in Caustic Caverns where the enemies spawn in Caustic Caverns are also pretty conveniently isolated and segregated. This allows you to farm for chubby enemies without having to deal with other enemies attacking their spawns. Farming for Chubby enemies in the Caustic Caverns also works well with farming for Vermivorous the Invincible as you need Varkids to evolve to a supreme state.


Tundra Express

The Tundra Express is another area where chubby farming is made easier due to the presence of varkid colonies. Although this area has other enemies that will target Vault Hunters and interfere with farming. Vermivorous the Invincible can also be spawned in the Tundra Express, however, when the buzzards arive your chances are reduced to zero.


The Dust

In the Dust, there is Bug Gulch behind Ellie’s Garage. This area has a large number of spiderants, with very little resistance from other enemy types. Farming this area is best coupled with farming The Black Queen, Gettle, and Mobley.


Natural Selection Annex (DLC only)

During the Creature Slaughter missions, badasses have a much higher rate of spawning, though in order to farm this area effectively one of the higher rounds will need to be deliberately failed, preferably on the final wave after the possibility of additional chubbies has been exhausted.


Arid Nexus – Badlands

There are around 12 skag dens in the Arid Nexus – Badlands. The quest Hungry Like the Skag will highlight the spawn areas on your map. Each den area is able to spawn Chubbies and Badasses. Nearby the Fast Travel station there are 6 you can check quickly—3 on the ridge just right of the player spawn, 2 near a house area just ahead over a small ledge, and 1 by the skag pool straight ahead of the Fast Travel station. Utilizing the Save/Quit strategy, this area yields fast and reliable results in single player.


Three Horns – Valley

If using the Fast Travel station there are a few skags on the way to fight Doc Mercy. If none of these enemies are tubby skags then you can [Save]/[Quit], and enter the game again to check for the tubbies.

Use arid nexus badlands. I used to be a huge fan of the dust until getting practiced on arid nexus. Not only is there less walking involved but you've also got a red chest in zeds old clinic.

The downside of arid vs the dust is no veruc or lyuda farming enroute and the fact that you'll encounter rabid skags. As there's no rabid spiderants, the dust is probably easier, though more time consuming.

There's another hidden red chest in Fyrestone:

Plus the one on the roof of the old bus stop where you fight Saturn.
The map can also spawn loot midgets.
Great farming run imo.

ok so I did a 10 runs of each zone and I found that the wildlife exploitation preserve on OP8 is just brimming with tubbies, the other zones dont even come close! start at the first warp point and kill your way to the creature dome, you can even go in the dome and do a round, save quit and do another run, exit and run back to start for max tubbies, the other places don't even come close.....sadly they still have not dropped the class mod I want
