Had to save this guy from Home Depot. The tray had no water and they were so dried up ☹️ this one was lucky and didn’t have the humidity dome taken off, so the moss was still a little damp. I have it in distilled water inside a small indoor greenhouse for now, and it’s looking much happier. Hoping it catches a few of the gnats that found their way in there lol.

I’m glad you’re taking good care of it! Just make sure to put it outside soon since it’ll do the best there

It’s going to live on my covered back porch until it has to come in for the winter. i just popped it in my little greenhouse while I figure out where to put it. This is my first carnivore, so I’ve been doing some reading on their care to make sure I do everything right 😃

They actually stay outside all winter for dormancy every year. Mine were frozen solid last year but they love it and need it 😁
