Do not feed the flytraps the mouths die after eating usually and it will kill your plant early.
I had a small VFT years ago and I never experienced that. Do you know that from firsthand experience?

That is what we were taught, and I have seen it occur(though sometimes it does not). How often you feed could change this just dont overdo it, once in a while to watch is ok, but it can be overdone is more accurate.

My VFT arrived a couple days ago. I still haven't seen them yet, but my bro says they look healthy and is taking care of them. I also found Peter D'Amato's "Savage Garden" book at the local book store for $3.20. It sure beats the $23 price on California Carnivores.
