This is Trevor, he is 3. Can anyone tell me why he doesn't look happy? He has deionised water, proper substrate, was repotted last year and I'm trying to get him out in the sun as much as possible. I have cut 2 flower stalks off before flowering and he's catching flies but just doesn't look a happy chappy. Is it too cold still for him to be out overnight?

I had one once and I was feeding it too many flies. I think they only open and close so many times before it wears them out. The new ones coming up look good and not drooping so maybe that is the problem? I see a dead fly in one but it's not closed. I am not sure it's just a thought.
