Mini mealworms! They are tiny half a mm thick by 3mm long tiny little things perfect for tiny slings I used to get mine from amazon they are expensive but come next day delivery but I breed my own now so I have access to every size mealworm now.
My tapi was hungry like this too and would take on most stuff , he went to live with my SO ( he was desperate for a tapi and they weren't available so i gifted mine to him as i knew he will keep babba safe) but was super fun to feed while was with me. Very much remind me of Psalmopoeus in their attitude. Is a great little freebie, little one got a name yet?
I think that's a requirement to be in the genus. My Tapi's are ravenous constantly and will try to come through the glass to eat your face if you even breath on their enclosure.

I think mine are a teeny bit bigger than that, but ...funny story, a few showed up as hitchhikers with the feeder crickets I bought at my local big box pet store, and they have absolutely taken over my cricket bin. They're a great cleanup crew.
...where by "cleanup crew" I also mean that they are fed a steady diet of crickets...does that count as gut loading??
But yes, that's what all these tiny ones are getting until they're over an inch legspan. Luckily I've got a self-sustaining KK of them at this point!

My favorite part is the way this one teleports back into the nice tiny dirt curtain it already pulled up there at the bottom of the bark if I even TOUCH the bin though.
Actually, before it had the nice little burrow all staked out, I touched the bin and it did a lap and a half at about warp 3. I told my husband "I touched the bin and Tapi did a tapi this morning" and then...had to explain what that meant...
I feel better about actually opening the bin to drop in a worm now that's got a burrow.
