i would feed him really slow. they can hook out on the small side sometimes. i'd say that he will probably hook out in about 2 molts or so.

Just an FYI krack, GBB are notoriously difficult to breed because the females tend to kill the males almost every time.

Congrats on your new spiders though. They are one of my faves.

I believe sac counts for GBB's are around 80-125. I believe Ryan recently had a sac around 100.

Eating of the males happens no matter what when it's going to happen, and being there to watch it only adds to the horror.
