One of my Tarantulas is dead :(

Heres the thing that bothers me most about it (I have a question too)... I was in the middle of moving from state to state when I decided that I would need to leave some things behind. 3 of those things we're very dear and treasured Taratulas that I owned. Well, one of them went to a really good friend of mine and she gave it to her little brother. She (the tarantula) is doing great and loves her new home! She gets lots of attention from her new owner and his little buddies. I also get frequent updates on its health. The other 2 tarantulas went to another friend of mine along with some furniture and our dog. The dog is better of in his new home without a doubt. He gets much more attention and gets to run more. Well, one of the tarantulas died (the youngest) and my friend didnt even tell me. I called him up one day and asked him how they were and thats when I was told about the dead one. Well, I decided to take a drive and pick up the remains as well as the other tarantula. When I got there I noticed how skinny the living tarantula was and instantly knew how the other one died. After a total of 14 hours of driving, I now had a dead tarantula and a live tarantula at home. I properly got rid of the dead one and within a day had giving the live one 6 big crickets. He (the tarantula) ate all 6 of them within 8 hours. Do you think I should feed him again or wait a week like usuall? He is supposed to get 6 crickets once a week (This has been found to be his optimal eating range after owning this tarantula for years).
