[QUOTE="Sabeth, post: 30270, member: 545"] They both look good. A cricket a week means 4 crickets a month...[I]The Tarantula Keeper's Guide[/I] recommends 6-8 crickets a month but cutting back slightly will by no means harm the T, much less a G. rosea. These spiders go through fasts frequently in the wild. In fact, it's recommended that during the colder months you feed them just 1-2 crickets a month to help them guage what season it is. Rosies seem to go through some confusion when they come in from Chile. My Rosie was also a very ravenous eater and got 8 or so crickets monthly. Interestingly, she never became significantly plump, just a pleasant round shape. [/QUOTE]
