If a young mali has a couple spikes missing from it`s tail would they ever grow back?

Sorry I can't help you with this question, but I sure someone will chime in soon!

No they won't regenerate. The real question is how they were lost. Is it a row of spikes missing?

no,just two are missing,and it`s kinda flat there...you don`t think they will ever grow back??

Could have died off from a retained shed. Tails seem to the sensitive area on most Uros. Unfortunately there isn't a lot of info on the health issues of the tail area. I've looked into it before and can't seem to find much conclusive info.
