What fun!
The Monarch TOWER Clear Mesh Caterpillar Cage allows a safe environment for the caterpillars. Right now there is an off season butterfly in the mesh cage who was attacked by a bird and can no longer fly. She has a good time hanging out and perching on the milkweed flowers for a drink of nectar for food. The cage or nursery as I call them clean well and are sturdy. I love them.

The cage is beautiful and arrived in good time. I just hope that I can raise 30 butterflies with it. Thanks.

Another Great Purchase!
This is my 3rd habitat purchased from Monarch Butterfly Life. I will never buy from anyone else! Quality is excellent, the drawbridge door is super convenient and shipping was fast.

Best investment !
These are the perfect enclosures! Mesh all around (no “display” wall for my butterflies to slip on) and the mesh is so fine you can see right though it ! My new one stop shop for all things monarch!
Don’t know how I lived without these! Constantly wasting paper towels and doing cleanup was a pain until I got these poo poo platters! Now all I do is take them out, dump the frass, disinfect(with weak bleach solution), dry and return. Easy peasy!
I purchased the package of small hole tube covers thinking I may or may not need them. So far, I've used every single one of them! It's good to have a mix of small and larger tops, in my opinion.
The short pegs and water containers are awesome. The caterpillars love to clime up and chomp on the milkweed. They also allow easy cleaning of the habitat floor while the 'cats' are busy climbing and chomping. I've just placed another order!
I usually put milkweed plants in tall tower, but can't put too much in otherwise may touch wing when emerging from pupae. This is 3rd year raise and release, and these will work great, and give them a choice of what they want to eat
