Younger smaller tarantulas that are bigger than tiny babies but not anywhere near adult size get fed about every four days. Larger tarantulas and full adults get fed once every 7-10 days. This is what works for me, but I think there is a wide margin of error. I'll bet a person could feed half of what I do, and I think their tarantulas would be fine. I just like feeding them and watching them do their thing.</blockquote>
