I have been doing research and watching many different youtube videos on the subject. Really I just come here for more clarification.
Here is what you should search for:

How to start a colony of xxxxx(Any type of feeder, unless you are rich enough to buy feeders everytime. Dubia roach, red runner, mealworms, superworms are all pretty good, you can try cricket but roachs are better.)

Atleast three different caresheet of the specie you want to raise.(Some caresheets are horrible and full of misinformation)

Search the name of the specie here, read a dozen threads about them, see what the people say.

Go on youtube and find videos about this specie, feeding video, husbandry video. A tutorial on how to raise it would be the best but that's usually not the case.

Then, you can get a feeder colony started, get the husbandry done. And order your tarantula. More information is always better, so it doesn't hurt to watch a couple more videos.

@Drezan feeder breeding is good practice, if your really set on breeding a T you should get experience with breeding animals in general

unless you are rich enough to buy feeders everytime
the most expensive part of getting feeders is gas, but I agree why waste gasoline when you can get a large container of oats for 2.99 at club price and get more than a hundred super worms.

You’re better off doing it in reverse. More misinformation on the Tube than here

My favorite thing on arachnoboards is the "related search" results at the bottom of a thread. You see the most exciting thread, and you have exactly the information that the OP was looking for and you fill it all in and push "post reply" and then look at the date and realize that it was originally posted in 2003. :grumpy:

Sadly many posters are too stupid to look down the page. Similar Threads is a nice feature.

mouse broken can't scroll, must post original form of what B. albo likes to eat.
I have no idea why you responded to me. I wasn't speaking about you, if I was, I would have mentioned your name.

Actually, yes, I live in Canada.
well at least the snow is free...right?
anyways, yeah breeding feeders is pretty much optimum efficiency, sure thermodynamics exist, but...wait never mind thermodynamics exist...all is lost...but not destroyed.
