I'm not a scientist. The difference between me and them is they just repeat this nonsense over and over until it becomes accepted.
Have you found any reliable videos from someone who seems honest who has shown a tarantula "molting out of this condition" and being healthy a year later?
If so...
I lost five of them. Thought the last two were going to make it since they were an inch (almost two inches in USA T-dealer measurements) but they kicked off within 24hrs of one another as they molted.

It may be possible to raise slings at a rate that would make the...
Well, your time is precious. Like any superhero devoted to her duty you must work without sleep to keep Canada free of dubia roaches. All it takes is one sexed pair to enter and the entire food supply of Canada is gone within 72 hours, so much do dubia thrive in Canadian weather.
