P regalis leg regeneration pics(fresh molt)

[shogun804]

this is the P regalis that i posted pics of in the molting series, she is growing back her "Back leg" at this point the first pic is premolt without the leg the next four are after molt with start of new leg {D enjoy everyone.

what i want to know is where was the leg right before it molted? must have been scrunched up somehow? :wall:

well i purchased this T from a person here on the boards and she was missing a leg, the new leg you see is how much it grew back after one molt.

I've always wondered the same thing! I just don't get it, there is no bulge, it just appears out of nowhere!! :? :confused:

Nice regalis by the way! Really quite stunning.

I watched carefully as a few regerated limbs emerged. They appear to be folded against the body. Probably deflated, I am guessing that after emergence they hydrostatically 'blow them up' . BP in a (standing) T = human blood pressure.

It is amazing how they can regenerate missing or damaged appendages.
Now only of humans could achieve the same feat... LOL {D
Beautiful pokie you have there!

[stonemantis]

Very nice pokey. Great recovery on the leg too. Boy you can't even tell that it was missing a leg. :cool:

[Grimlock]

I agree with you wolfey. It amazes me as well. I think it's awesome.

I'm happy your T is looking up. :)

[shogun804]

thanks for all the compliments {D i am very proud of her growth with this molt, it really is incredible to see that happen especially for the first time, and greg i have to agree that would rule all! if we could regrow our limbs.
