Bought a Venus Fly trap, what is the packet?
I got a venus fly trap from Josh's Frogs, and it doesn't say in the instructions and information packets that come with it what it is and I can't find any information regarding it on their website. It's a white packet, about as long as my hand, and it has black stuff in it. My mom thinks it might be ground up flies to feed it and my sister thinks it's probably soil, but it's very dry and hard. The individual pieces of it are very tiny. I don't know what it is, and I don't want to try to feed it to my plant and kill it. Anybody know what it might be?

Maybe give some free advice about: Plants and Gardens?
If Joes Frogs is a plant nursery, call and ask them or call a local nursery and ask. I bought one decades ago as a teen and it didnt come with anything, just the plant in the pot. Personally, I wouldn't feed it anything, just let it catch it's own flies. Until the season of more house flies being about arrives, It should survive quite a while on just getting water. Make sure it gets the right amount, not too much or too little as either way can be worse and kill a plant if it can't handle one of those extremes.
