here is some pics of my armatus and his one of his teeth broke off and grew back crooked. as you can see in the video he is not closing his mouth and is breathing heavier then normal. is this because the tooth isnt lined up with the hole in the upper jaw or is there something else going on? any advice or input appreciated. here is a vid link to if it helps. thanks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3AIJeChlPo

He will shake it loose in a day or so. Happens all the time when one is ready to shed or he bumps one sideways. He will take care of it. No worries! Hope he is doing good for you!:)
 
im glad to hear that. he is doing good so far. he ate 2 of my nicaraguensis. i thought they were to big for him but i guessed wrong. im glad i bought him from you.
 
Yup nothing to worry he'll fix it himself either re aligning or shed them off.. It happens to my armatus too.. How big is urs.
