[QUOTE="timc, post: 198303, member: 4054"] Catch cups and looooooooooooong tongs. They cruise. I’ve never owned metallica, but from what I understand they’re one of the more skittish pokies, probably because they’re the smallest and don’t grow the confidence of a rufilata, ornata, regalis. They’re probably pretty chill if you don’t go poking around their enclosure all the time. One last note; I’ve heard a lot of people over the years say pokies will run laps around their enclosure when startled; not my rufilata. When she was younger she was an up-and-over girl and that speed is [I]speed.[/I] So just respect your spider and all should be well. [/QUOTE]
