Im thinking of buying a venus fly trap but i want to know if i can feed it other kinds of meat like chicken?


Question:

Answers:
You should refrain from feeding a Venus Fly Trap dead food like chicken or steak. When hairs of the Venus Fly Trap are triggered by a struggle from insects like ants and flies it helps to aid in the digestion process.


Yes, they eat practically anything like that but just tiny bits of it.
hi
A venus fly trap plant only "eats" 2 to 3 flies per month, so the feeding is not very time consuming. Do not feed high fat meat products, such as chicken, as it will kill the plant.
I've found that my Venus Fly Trap prefers small dogs: Poodles and Chihuahuas are favorites. Once in a while I'll tantalize "Trappy" with a mouse. If you do this make sure that the mouse is all the way in BEFORE the trap closes. Otherwise, it can be pretty messy.
insects are best. ants are easy (they don't attempt to fly away from you). they don't need much--a few times per month. i once killed one by feeding it too much.
Check outthis link. It has the info you need.
