| Last week I got an A. Fasciculata who's a BAD BAD sling. He/she has escaped from its enclosure twice in three days so now it's in a deli cup until it molts. But the last time it escaped I accidentally injured one of its feet. It doesn't seem like a major injury, I just wanted to know if it would heal within the next molt. Thanks! | |

|  If you can see, it has its front right foot curled up a bit, and when it walks it holds that same foot in the air. If you think I'm just being a wimp just call me a wimp. This was an expensive sling and I don't want anything to happen to it. | |

| Next molt the sling should be fine and have a fully functional foot. I have had them completly missing a leg, and a palp. Both of which came back in the next molt. Got an adult blue fang missing a leg, which got stick in the molt I guess when it molted and cast it off, should come back next molt though. | |

| Thank you. Honestly, I recommend this T for everyone's collection. Since avics are my favorite, this T is like my version of a P. Metallica. | |
