Its dehydrated. These are best in a distilled water tray

It is I pour a little bit of distilled water in the bowl every day

A saucer isn't enough, the tray needs to be taller, the water should come up at least half the pot. If its being soaked up to the point you need to fill the dish everyday, it's definitely a sign of not enough water. Coupled with it not being very dew heavy.

This isn't the sane species, but you can see how dew heavy this one is.
