Spiderling Tarantula and Maggots?

Question

I have a Spiderling Mexican Redknee

I feed him pin head crickets but crickets are a pain in the *** to take care of

My pet store doesnt sell maggots and i want to try to feed him that

Is it safe if I made my own maggots. What i mean is ill put out a garbage bin in my shed. Fill it up with rotten food. Let the maggots be born and feed them to my Tarantula. Can my Tarantula get ill from it?

Answer 1

type in on google fine maggots that should be what ur looking for

Answer 2

It might get sick.Why not feed it mini mealworms?

Answer 3

Cool man,I've allways wanted a red knee,I have a Chilean rose,in answer to your question....you can feed your spiderling anything small enough for it to overpower,as regard to maggots I wouldn't risk feeding it garbage fed maggots,Bait shops and Tackle shops sell healthy maggots for anglers and wouldn't risk harming fish stocks with toxic bait. I tried mealworms with Huxley but they kept burrowing into the sub-strata before he could hunt them. hope I helped
