Assuming you vary the diet of your feeders this won't be as much of a concern, however I do like to the same thing. Varied diets are important for good growth and healthy tarantulas.Its important to give variations, crickets, roaches, locusts or other big insects. Giving only roaces or only crickets its not very good. I use well fed B. dubia as basic and then give crickets or lucousts now and then.
I completely agree ! I feed mine a varied diet crix, waxworms, roachs etc. . . .Its important to give variations, crickets, roaches, locusts or other big insects. Giving only roaces or only crickets its not very good. I use well fed B. dubia as basic and then give crickets or lucousts now and then.
I wouldn't feed them adult beetles unless they are freshly molted (soft and white). The larvae (mealworms) and pupae are fine, but crush the head of the mealworm before feeding it to the tarantula.Hi can theybeat darkling beetles or ate they to hard
