7 legs doesn't really mean anything.... I had an usambara lose a leg in a molt through no fault of mine, or it's own.

that's a "not necessarily" btw.... they DO grow back...

DEFINITLY TAKE THAT GREEN CRAP OUT OF THERE... but if a pet store employee told u to do that i dont blame u having it in there... just take my word and everyone elses and get the CRAP out of there and get some nice potting soil or sphagnum peat moss/vermiculite mix.

He never said where he got it, or who told him anything.
I hope he replies.
I had my first long term T on fish tank gravel for 5 years, before I knew any better. IMO, the real problem is, its way to wet in there.
But your right, peatmoss and a hide would be the ticket..

I was thinking it looks a lot like a Grammastola species myself... And if it is 2cm in size it should be showing the starts of the trademark B.smithi colors. At least in my experience they are showing some color by that size. Hopefully with the next molt it will look more like a B.smithi
