My leo "quivvy" dropped his tail at two weeks due to my sister dropping something next to him and stressing him. He is now 6 months and very cheerful. Judy it looks like he regenerated two tails. Is that okay? In my profile picture is quivvy my leo.

mack snow aren't so rare now-a-days from what I've seen. I have a bold mack snow male. Altho don't suspect you can walk into any joe blow petstore and pick up a few. The tailthinkg is totally freaky. I wonder why it grew back split like that. Was there further damage like a subsequent drop whilst the leo was healing form the first drop?

Honestly not at all. I followed all the things to do for a dropped tail. I think quivvy is a he but I am not sure. He will be seven months on march 15. Is that old enough to tell? I hope his tail is not a problem. He is very nice to people and he loves to be held. I love my baby quivvy :)

awwww and im sure he loves you to :D
nah the tail thing is just a freeky nature thing. for some reasons the cells split right at the start, forming means of two tails. fat storage is normally spread evenly between the two so weight shouldn't be a problem. just keep an eye that they dont get to big and heavy as this could damage the spine i guess.
if he drops his tail again theres every chance it could grow back with one again.
nature is a wonderful thing :D

Exactly what I thought but I am not going to force him to drop it that would be cruel., as long as he is fine I love him no matter what
