If you're feeding smaller prey items, then it may be appropriate to offer your spiderling food 2-3 times per week. However, if the food is on the larger side, then once a week will be sufficient. I feed my babies roughly every week, sometimes twice a week and occasionally every week and a half.

How often do you feed Spiderlings?

Feeding appropriately sized crickets or roaches once or twice each week for small spiderlings is just fine. We feed spiderlings the weekend before they ship.

What time of day should I feed my tarantula?

Feed juveniles daily, adults every other day. Since they are nocturnal, feeding should occur at night. Be sure that food is smaller than the tarantula; pink toes eat small crickets; remove any uneaten live food as it may cause injury to a resting tarantula.
