[QUOTE="Gizalba, post: 184488, member: 31253"] I opened up Celeritatem's enclosure to feed, she suddenly ran out and I panicked - I put the catch cup down too fast and her leg came off :( She is a Psalmopoeus pulcher sling about 3cm leg-span. I have read that legs can re-generate with a moult but I am worried what if she is bleeding? She is so small I would be scared to make things worse by operating on her with glue. I have included a picture of the leg - I think it looks like it came clean off with no blood but I wanted to check? I feel so bad I'm still shaking, I really shouldn't have panicked. She crawled back into her enclosure when I poked her out of the catch cup lightly with a paint brush, and now she is understandably hiding, so I can't tell if she is okay :/ [/QUOTE]
