Maybe waxies are better because they have a low ratio of undigestable parts versus nutrients. A cricket has more parts that end up in a bolus than a waxworm, if both are of equal size.I'm late to the party but thought would mention what I said is basically what CB had mentioned here anyway.
I have experienced limbs being fully regenerated upon the next moult when specimen only fed Waxworms (more feedingd than usual). I think they contain much more fatty fluids that perhaps stored then help promote the regrowth in moult process.
I used to only feed crickets and roaches and hadnt noticed this before. That is why I think waxys and similar are good for regeneration. Although obviously all prey with have the nutrients to do so.
OK thanks for the tips, I'll definitely grab some wax worms today. I'm going to try any and everything. It survived the night and seems to have a bit more energy today. He dragged himself around a bit using his palps and two remaining legs. I'm probably going to need prey that is easy to handle and won't move too fast for my T, so waxworms should do the trick.I'm late to the party but thought would mention what I said is basically what CB had mentioned here anyway.

Yea it really sucks. No not yet, there is always a 3+ day delay for responses from them for some reason. Lesson learned, I won't be buying from them again that's for sure.That is really sad, especially considering it is the second time you have to go through this. Have you had a response of the seller yet?
It was such a beautiful T which made it all the more worse. Yea I did, and at least I know what to do now if I ever have this problem again. Thanks again for the help.Re: seller...a bitter lession to be sure.
But you should know that you did your best to save them. Don't beat yourself up.
That is an amazing recovery story. Kudos to you.This is one of the only ts I have ever named...heeeeerrre's Johnny....Johnny 2 legs that is:Two-legged Avic
A. avic 2 legs is better than none. Fully recovered now.
Its since molted and re gained all legs, but they were skinny. This past molt a few weeks ago it put on a lot of growth and is ready to be re-housed into a normal size enclosure. Its half the size of its siblings, but finally healthy for the first time in its life
