Your Flytraps are fine so far. Outside of greenhouses and terrariums, these plants don't live very long. They are interesting novelty plants, but don't get too attached to it.

Yours is properly potted in damp sphagnum moss, not soil. Keep the moss barely damp, but not wet. Don't disturb the roots or consider repotting it. High humidity helps. Use distilled water, if possible and fertilize not at all or very sparingly; likewise with insects. Keep it warm and in bright indirect sunlight.
