    It may need to be fed like a baby bird. As in you may need to bring it bugs with tweezers to ensure it’s well fed 😝

      what kind of soil did you use? if it has any fertilizer in it, it can kill your plant. i don’t have a fly trap but i’ve heard a peat/sand mixture works best for them

    These guys don’t like any fertiliser at all!! When it comes to repotting they are super fussy with what soil they like. They also have a period where they completely die down and all of the leaves die but they come back when it’s warm again

    They need A LOT of humidity! I would keep a dome over it.
