Overnight, there was a rain storm, and when I went to check on it, 3 of the leaves had closed and are in digesting stage, and it has 2 fall traps still opened. It is a new plant (less than a year old). I heard that you can overfeed the trap, so is it ok if I leave it like that or should I cut the leaves off.

Leave the traps, it will be fine. The worst that will happen is that the closed traps will no longer be able to close, but it will put out new functioning traps.
