No offense but this is a BAD idea. P metallicas deserve to be spoiled with health not stressed and picked up. Either way a poecilotheria Metallica has a serisouly inconvinient bite. Expensive tarantulas need to feel expensive.
@Jayz159ify No offense taken;) I know they are not meant to be handled. The big girls metallica i have is all of them being mated at this time, so they have peace from any intruder;)
@rubetz528 Yes, they do have a bad bite. But poecilotheria metallica are really not that bad tempered. Of course i took a chance, and i dont reccomend others to do it, there are alot other tarantulas to handle that are more safe.
Well i certainly cant compete with Robc enclosures, i am just giving them a dark home. There is transparant in the side where the hide is, it is so i can take a peek without disturbing them and see if they have given me a sack. Ibought 16 of them for 140 dollars and build a rack where i can control the heat with a thermostat. So soon there will be breedings here.
hahaha i can imagine myself saying to tha '' luv just get in the goddam box''

Man, isn't that damn dangerous? I've heard the bites of these can be very poisonous and harmful.

Cool enclosure, looks much cheaper Robc's method, how much that setup cost you?
