i have a problem i have had the Peruvian Blonde (Lasiodorides polycuspulatus)
for just over 5 months now and i have only now noticed that it has one and a half fangs
im not a newbie but i still have not been through this with a T and im guessing its not a common thing
if there is any one here in the forum thats had this happen to you i could do with your advice thanx .

she dose eat but not as often as she use to its becoming a problem now
cause she hasent eaten in a few weeks maybe a month or 2 im not so warred cause they can go a long time with out eating
she is very active and verry aggressive now im taking a guess and saying the reason she has such a temper
is because she might be in pain or like some info on GOOGLE and other sites say they can get pretty aggressive sometimes
if any one can help thanx..

A little bit of punctuation goes a long way.

That is very weird though. If it's been like that for 5 months it doesn't seem to be bothering the T too much?

I don't think fangs are able to regenerate though.

Seeing that there are fangs still attached to the exuvium after a molt, I reckon they do regenerate.

With regards to pain, I believe it is generally thought that Ts don't have pain sensors. So don't worry about that.

It sure does. It will fall on deaf ears here though.

Fangs can/do regenerate at moults.

Somewhere on the interwebs I read about a T (thing it was a L. Paryhabana) that lost both fangs. They cut the food in many small pieces and it was still able to eat, just a lot less and a lot less often but eventually after a molt its fangs was back, although a lot smaller.

I have had a P. irminia with a broken fang. The same as with limbs, it grows back with the next molt. Maybe then it will be a lithe smaller than the other, but another molt after that it should be fine.
