Most people will say to feed a sling twice a week, a juvie once a week, an adult every 2 weeks to a month, or some formula similar to that. It just depends on how big the prey is and how big the tarantula's appetite is. Some will keep eating until they're stuffed, and then not eat for a month. I have a few that do that. I also have a few avics that fast, and won't eat for 2-3 weeks at a time. You just have to experiment a bit, see what kind of routine your spider adopts. Hope this helped <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
