    Assuming the pot has drainage… I would clean her up and start bottom watering or get a watering globe. She’s too close to the window also. They like partial sun

      I was just going to say the same thing about light, it’s not going to like any direct sun. Bottom watering is a great way to make sure that the soil is actually saturated too since ferns are thiiiiiiiirsty and don’t like drying out for too long, if at all. Don’t give up on it though! I’ve killed my fair share of ferns and even though rabbit’s foot is the only one I’ve been able to keep alive, they’re super finicky and if this one does die, that’s just an excuse to go get a new (tougher) plant! Good luck! 🪴

    That plant looks stressed by the amount of light it’s receiving, move it to a shadier spot or find a way to filter the light. Make sure your potting formula is well draining, and if your pot doesn’t have drainage holes, that you are giving it just the right amount of time between waterings to dry and get just ever so slightly damp before watering again. Don’t be afraid to get your fingers a few inches in that soil! Have hope and give your fern a few words of encouragement. Still looks fierce!

    Thank you all for the comments! Unfortunately I think I moved it to its pot too early, and this new pot does not have drainage holes😬 I’ll keep all your advice in mind!
