yes, eventually, through successive molts, the limbs will regrow

just like everyone else says, i am pretty sure that all anthropods grow back limbs, do spiders? i know that the cleaner shrimps grow them back through molting and i know sally lightfoots do after a while.
on another note my lmb grew back its cirrhi(how do you spell that?) you know the little eyebrow thingies, anyway it came without one and after a while its back.
