I just picked up some venus fly traps and I am excited to give them a shot. Any one else have any carnivorous plants?
 
i hade some but they died so no plants for me..
 
hahahaha ive tried those plants, dont last longer then half a year with me, dont know why. I think a pitcher plant would be amazing tho.
 
Ive had pitcher plants in our garden, we had to water them like crazy
 
I had a venus fly trap for a few months, then I forgot about it and left it outside during the winter and it died.

i just seen them at super store for like 9$ for a small plant

that is about how I got mine, I was out shopping and it caught my eye. $5 so i got it and it is in my viper cage now in a modified water bowl.
 
i had one for about 3 years. it really flourished. I found the trick was using distilled water and only putting water in from the bottom, IE: not adding it directly to the soil but letting it soak up through a tray underneath, don't know the proper term for that kind of watering, but it was a fun plant :)
