Does anyone out there knows if Jackson Merumontanus'rostal horn is capable of regrowth after it breaks? Please let me know. Thanks.

Do you still have the broken off part? Use liquid bandaids to glue it back on. I did it with one of my Jackson Xans. I don't now if they'll grow back or not.

LOL!! That sounds so funny. Gluing it back on... ha ha. That is a really interesting question though. How did things go after you glued it back on Chaco.. did it stay glued on???

It may grow a little as it would throughout his life, but a new horn will not regenerate. Big deal, so he has a broken horn now. Still an awesome little animal. I have some with broken and screwed up horns because they are WCs.
