Atrophy of the skin will reveal a bone like structure as the skin is being pulled downward closer to the foot and away from the toe. But they do not regenerate lost toes, tails and limbs.

We used to (when he was still on small crickets) feed him 15-40 crickets a day (sometimes 2/3 times a day) and he ate them all in minutes (or seconds) but now he leaves them alone for days sometimes (usually try to take them out if he doesn't eat them).
