well when you put it that way then yeahOur tarantulas are all well fed, that's why they have the luxury of refusing prey they don't particularly like. Roaches provide the same nutrition for one spider as they do for another, regardless of that spiders preference of prey. I spoil them as it is, so if I say they're eating dubia, they're eating the freakin dubiaI may want to stop at a restaurant on the way to work, but if I'm saving my money, I eat in the cafeteria (horrible) with my employee discount or make a sandwich. If I can do it, so can they. They'll eat their dubia sandwich and like it.
My GBB had a change in tastes today. He ran from the adult lateralis, they may be a little big for him yet. But he tore part of his webbing down trying to get the dubai out of it. i think i'll keep dropping them on his webbing so they can't burrow and it was entertaining watching him go nuts to get it.
Anytime. Don't know if you have any really large species, but if so, you might wanna look into horn worms as well. Again can be pricey and hard to find at times, but they're a great feeder for tarantulas 6 inches or above. They grow pretty massive, reaching over 4 inches, and like silkworms, the moths are big too and make great feeders for larger arboreals. Unlike silkworms though, I believe these have a more diverse diet, o you don't have to just feed them one thing in order to keep them alive. There's also butterworms, which are similar to wax worms, but Orange in color, and have a sweet nectory smell t them that makes them more appealing to whatever eats them.
