Default Damaged albo pitchers

Recently, quite a few of my albo's pitchers were damaged. Not at the same time... but over past 2 months. I suspect bird attack but didn't witness in person. Only albo is affected. Neighbouring plants are fine. I don't think it hurts the plant more than being unsightly. Anyone having this problem?

Default Re: Damaged albo pitchers

If you ask me, that looks like a slug, snail or caterpillar eating it. Long ago, I had a slug that ate my bical pitchers. I'm not sure why only your albi is the victim, perhaps you should check the albo's pot to see whether there's a pest hiding in the pot.
