This is my Venus flytrap from Home Depot! Why are the traps not pink? I will be reporting soon after reading how they need 6 inch deep.

That's looking great! I am not sure why the traps are not pinkish inside the traps, it may just depend on their genes.

Welcome to FlytrapCare!

Your Home Depot flytrap looks very healthy. Some flytraps get deep red traps, others will stay green all the time. Light is a contributing factor to coloration, but, as sanguinearocks101 stated, it largely comes down to the genetics of the individual plant.

Looks like you're taking good care of it. Great job! Also, I like that cactus in the background.
