leg loss

[arachnodave]

My SP bird eater just molted today and she did not do so well she lost one of her legs. Will she be ok and will it grow back?

Yeah she will be fine . Sometimes these things happen her leg should grow back in a molt or 2

Sorry to hear, my Lugardi is running on 7 legs due to a molt also

How large is your and how fast was teh molt? Did she put on a lot of size? Mine molted yesterday as well, and it was the quickest molt I have seen yet, only about 6 hours or so, and she seems to have put on size quick. It may take a couple of molts for that leg to appear normal, but it shouldn't affect her.
