Hi,
I have just bought my very first vft
I have sarrs and neps but never had a vft!!
As you can see from the photo, it's a fair size (12cm pot) with lovely looking traps but I'm worried about the sketchy looking substrate (and would love to put it in a nice fancy pot)!
Is it bad to repot at this time of year (June) and how do you repot without setting off/damaging the traps?
Another quick question, I've read conflicting reports about feeding them. Some have said if you don't feed them insects (or they don't catch enough) they will die... is this true??
Sorry if the questions are a bit silly but I would hate to kill it by doing something stupid
It's being kept on a south facing conservatory window ledge with humidity between 30% - 70% by a door thats open when it's warm enough (I'm in the UK)...
Thanks in advance
