Ok, so. I have yet another question. I fed one of my flytraps a couple of weeks ago. It hasn't opened back up or turned black. Could it still be digesting the bug?

if it is cold or dormant then it will do so very slowly and the trap may even die without opening or digesting the prey. If its warm and under lights and is not being allowed dormancy, then it should react 'normally'

Cheers
