Best Answer

Stick insects can happily live with four legs, and some can even manage with just three. If they are young, the legs will slowly grow back with each skin moult.

Do walking sticks eat their skins after they molt?

It is not unusual for a stick insect to lose a leg in a moult. Some skin sheds, for various reasons, can go wrong and often the old skin can dry over several legs which can cause the stick insect to eject the tangled legs. To keep any incidents like this to a minimum, be sure to lightly spray inside the enclosure with water every day and make sure the enclosure is at least three times as tall as your stick insect - as many stick insects prefer to shed their skin while hanging vertically from a high leaf or branch. A stick insect can survive quite happily with at least three legs until the other legs grow back in future moults.
