Wax off, Wax on...

[Spider-man 2]

Thought some of you would like the see the leg regeneration of a spider....

Turns out my "female" is really a male......but not mature.

Notice leg IV on the left side is missing...

And POOF, there it is...all 8 legs are back!

For fun:

Yea, I would say that it is not fully regenerated yet, probably the next molt will finish it off, but the leg right above that missing one was at that step and now that one has fully regenerated. So, for this spider, it takes him two molts to fully regenerate a molt, visually.
