My best friend tried to show off to his friends my T's ....he took out my 3 inch female b.smithi while i was out getting dinner for us and in the process it apparently "jumped" 3feet and landed on the floor....they lost it.

I told them to leave and frankly wasn't in any
mood to deal with them. I searched for an hour and found her. I proceeded to move her to her enclosure cautiously. As didn't want to stress her or make possible injuries worse. I had noticed that she had poopped (clear, white) from the area she had fell.

I had examined her and there was no ruptured abdomen. Will she survive.

I'm have never been in this situation before.

No one can tell you if it will make it...there's little to do aside from keeping the water dish full and not disturbing her.....if she's not ruptured on her body, she will likely be ok...but no one can say for sure.

There comes a point in every younger person's life where they realize that many of their friends, shouldn't be, and need to start thinking about picking better ones....sucks but its true.

Yes if there's no rupture I think she would most likely be fine. But there could be damage internally.

I'd be very angry if any of my friends pulled something like that...

I hope there was no serious damage and your T will recover.

But I am angered. This whole thing is so senseless.
Perhaps theirs was just a dumb childish mistake... but I would pick new friends. I can't be around people I can't trust. And if something important to me has no value to someone else... we just can't be friends, yannoe?

It's a waiting game now. Nothing you can actively do.
Yeah. I guess it is. Believe me. I'm pretty pissed with them. They pick on my softy out of all of them...should have went for my monocentropus balfobalfouri...she puts up a fight. Thank you. Should I be concerned about the poop.

Maybe they will show some remorse and learn something -- change their attitudes. Maybe not and you've learned something valuable about choosing friends. Just... sad.

I am hoping for a happy outcome for the T and for you.

Your friend sounds like a jackass who shouldn't be around animals. No offense.

Hope the T didn't rupture anything.

It sucks, but tbh, your friend probably didn't understand the dangers. I would make it very clear not to ever touch them again, but I'm not so sure I'd take it much further than that.

My mom sorta did the same thing, just with a different animal. She was getting my chinese water dragon out, lights fell, and she dropped the lid... on his tail. I ended up having to amputate about 3 inches of his tail. It really sucked, but it happened with completely innocent intentions, if that makes sense.

I believe they should have known better. I never shut up about them. And they know the majority of my Ts ....are dicks ...but stunning to look at. Don't see why they couldn't wait till I got back. My mum also made a mistake once....but my mum's cooking is that good. I can't afford to fall out with her. But she didn't make a big mistake like that. :)
We've all made mistakes I guess.

Arthropods cannot Internally bleed because they do not have blood vessles, their internal structures can be damaged however. The spider sounds fine as long as their is no rupture. Keep us updated

Unfortunately there's not much you can do besides making sure she always has access to fresh/clean water and playing the waiting game.

Props for staying calm and just getting them to leave. If they start being bell-ends about it then it might be time to re-evaluate the company you keep.

Hope she's OK though.

There's nothing you or any other member could do - it's an internal injury by the sounds of it, best to leave it in peace, let it recover from these foolish children, always provide water for her - hoping she's ok pal.
