One of my Ghost females (a green one too) had a bad final molt and both of her front arms were caught in her sheddings. She made it out but now her arms are badly mangled, one is twisted 180 and the other is pulled back behind her head. Last night I hand fed her and she ate very well but this would be her only chance at survival. My question is should I just put her out of her misery or is there a chance that she will be able to breed?

The thought of putting her in the freezer makes me so sad but watching her feeblely eat is also pretty depressing.

if she can walk and eat i would let her live

if takin care of her is too hard for u i would be willin to take her in for u ;)

 
I would give it a few days and see what happens, then make a decision but it doesn't sound good? :( Best of luck to you both. :)
