[QUOTE="pokie99, post: 40545, member: 3501"] I feed my Ts whenever they're hungry (4 times a week depending on that if they're in pre - molt or have molted recently). The faster you feed it, the faster it will grow but if you don't feed it enough, you may end up with a small T. For example, in the local exotic pet shop a person brought a 5 year old Lasiodora striatipes mature female which is about 4" leg span while this sp. can reach a leg span of over 8". She hasn't been fed regularly and that's why she's so small. Now she eats like a beast! I think you should give it food whenever it's hungry. It won't be hungry all the time. When it reaches adulthood, then you'll feed it less often. I'm not an expert on feeding Ts but that's how I feed mine. About the sex thing: you can create a thread in the "What Sex is my Tarantula" section and if not me, someone else will help you sex it. You just have to photograph the area of the book lungs on the abdomen and in particular the curve between them. [/QUOTE]
