    More so curious and considering options. I'm also curious of the experiences of others. This is the spawn of early morning pondering.

    I'm certain in the wild if a Tarantula was to pass by a hungry Pacman it would most definitely attempt to eat it and if the spider is small enough surely succeed, but in captivity it is not wise. In the wild the eat what they must to survive. Captivity is in no way silimar and you provide what they need so that it isn't a fight for survival.

    Another part of me was also in the spirit of spoiling the frog. I was thinking lobster dinner. But, as it stands I've had this spider for five months. No takers on Craigslist or my friends. So anyone near the Eastern Panhandle of WV want a spider?

    What species is your tarantula? Knowing that will help re-home it !
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    Hopefully not a Goliath bird eater, if so the thread should be called Can tarantulas eat pacmans? But seriously though just don't feed it to the frog, keep searching for a good home.

    Unfortunately, she is just a Rose-hair. Though, she is metallic pink on the Thorax.

    omg what a nasty thread. it seems you have no consideration for either of your pets and sounds like you get bored quite easily. I'd actualy suggest selling BOTH of these animals as they don't seem like "pets" to you.

    I don't think this is a matter of time, it doesn't take long to take care of a tarantula. Insert food in container, remove the next day, spot clean if it has eaten. Clean every 6 months to a year, easyest pets around. I think your just bored of it.

    I believe this matter has been taken care of and everyone needs to move on.
