How often should I feed my pink toe

I've been feed my A.avic once a week crickets. I was wondering if that was to often or is ok? I know my G.porteri should be eating once a month or so cuz he has slow metabolism. Should I keep them on the same feeding schedule. It's not a sling I know that. I think she's about 3" if that helps.

That sounds good to me. Some people might suggest feeding it every other week instead at that size, but I personally don't think once a week for a 3 inch tarantula is too often.

The more you feed it, the faster it will grow. It can't die of eating too much. It will just stop eating and then molt. The only problem is if the enclosure's too high. It could fall and rupture its abdomen but that's for a terrestrial and you have an arboreal so it's very unlikely to happen.
