Not full on trying to be an butthole,but if you can't count to eight and the amount of posts you make. You are either a child or someone that needs to take up something like kinting sweaters yo in your high top nikes.

That is an amazing pic then if it's in it's burrow. And yes it's missing a leg. Just let it be. Molts will take care of that. Sorry to have came off sounding rude.
All good, I just don’t know how it lost a leg.

Is this the same spider you showed in that review of a seller from morphmarket with it fighting the T albo? If so the albo probably got the leg.
After I separated them, I had them both in ICUs for a day or two before housing them, to make sure they were ok. They weren’t leaking any fluid or anything. He had the leg. It must have happened after that? Maybe a super worm? Oh well I’ll probably never know.

If a leg is damaged, they can close off a valve to stop blood flow, and detach the leg from their body. Otherwise it should grow back in a few molts.
