like a month ago I was looking info about tarantulas for my little brother... well he got himself a tarantula and everything was fine until now... he was playing with her and he left her on the sofa, I told him to watch out because he could lose her... he went upstairs and when he returned the little guy wasn't there... I forgot completely she was there... then when we were looking for her we found her with 2 hurt legs... she is limb, I'm very worried about her I don't know if its going to be fine, she seems fine but do you think she can recover? his abdomen is not hurt...
 
Luckily it was only the legs and not the abdomen. Is there any luqid coming from them? If not you should be okay, just give it time to heal and after its next molt things should be fine. If there is luqid coming from the legs. Keep it in a clean tub with some paper towels, seal the wound(s), and keep an eye on it.
 
I just checked, she's walking a lot better, No liquid.... my brother learned a lesson, I feel guilty, he didn't understand when I told him but I didn't checked on him...
 
Okay, so just give her time to heal. Don't take her out of her enclosure. Just let time do its work. With her next moult it should be like nothing happened at all.
 
how often they molt? I don0t know nothing about them... I don't even know how often to feed them.... I'm going to research some more
 
Keep feeding her how many crickets is right for her once a week, and it depends on their growth rate and their last molt when their next one will be.
