You need to acclimate it to FULL SUN OUTSIDE. At least 6 hours minimum. They DO NOT need to be fed by you. Keep it in a water tray with about 1" of rain or distilled water in it.

My son had to get one of these also! Well same thing, mine started looking bad. I acclimated to outside on porch and now it is putting out new traps and growing! Just pinch off the heads of the dead ones.
HTH!

The plant looks like it's buried to deep in the moss. One of the leaves is just poking out!

The crown should where the new leaves will sprout should be level to the surface.

ive moved this outside. im keeping in a tray of water. I do intend to repot assuming its still alive in a couple of days. I plan on 1:1 perlite to sphagnum. any other suggestions? oh and will be in a 3-4 inch plastic container.

Use a deep pot if possible, Say 8" or more. They like deep pots. Their roots can get quite long.

thank you for all the help everybody. one more question... tommy I saw your grow page and it says your dormant period is accomplished by sticking in the refrigerator. so these need zero light during dormancy? I am in western new York can I just leave on the porch for the winter? or is that too dormant? can get below zero here. better for the 35 to 40 degrees in the fridge?

hope I make it this far lol

It gets TOO cold here in N.Y. for them outside. They wouldn't survive. If you have a basement or unheated garage that stays about 35-40 all winter that would also work. I don't have those places so mine go into Zip lock bags and into the fridge. Same with my Sarracenia. No light doesn't seem to be an issue, I've had my plants for at least 5-6 years now.

yep too cold. its a miracle when I emerge each spring. thank you very much for the help

mine came straight out of the container, right into my home made bog,lots of sun and its growing and getting along just fine.
