crow attack
 
shytes...

its the third time crows have been pecking on my VFT but now, its the worst. the whole pot fell to the ground, and most of the plants in that pot appear to be damaged.. hopefully theyll recover..

this is what it looked like:-

now, separating the plants, ive got 5 out of the pot.
as you can see, most of em are damaged.

Don't worry. They don't look too damaged. They will recover quickly. Just make sure enough sunlight and humidity is high.

Like Aaron said they hardly even looked damaged at all.Continue to grow in like how you grew in normally.How come your VFT doesn't get red????Green form??

Hi malowie,

Your VFT doesn't look that bad. It should recover nicely for you. Hope your plant is getting sufficient sun light.

Hahaha thanks Malowie. Hope your plants recover soon.

The damage isn't too bad. Your plants will recover just fine. If you continue to get attacked though, I would consider putting them in something so that the crows couldn't get at them. I built a little bottomless cage to set over the top of my plants to keep the birds and squirrels away. It works great!
