There seems to be a very strict adhesion on this forum to certain "rules" like enclosure size, handling, overall height of enclosures, never feed wild caught prey. I am not suggesting that these things are not with out risk. They are all good ideas. But, I kinda tend to look at them as...
I am not suggesting that it was an optimal set up. But, I do have to say that I think some of the risks are a bit over blown. They do exist and are best kept to a minimum
I had the same set up back in the 80's for a B. hamorii except I used a few inches of peat moss as substrate and sometimes fed live mice. I kept it for 15 years climbing in the screen lid and all.
Viper69,
I have kept dartfrogs on and off since the 90's. I never really had a collection. Usually one 1 or 2 species at a time. Right now I have D. leucomelas and R. imitators Varadero. I have to say I love leucomelas. They are always out and active, do well in groups if they are not...

I am only about a year into it. I have 2 hives and so far it has not been difficult at all. I do have a friend that I can call who is more experienced in bee keeping if I have any questions. But, for the most part I have found it pretty intuitive if you have a good understanding of insects...
Its really not that big of a deal. If you want a P. metallica and think you can deal with transfers and all that get one. Tarantulas are really not that hard to work with for the most part. I got a P' regalis as one of my first tarantulas. Fast and a little intimidating to work with at...
