Tower

This size tower worked very well as we were able to put larger plants in it for the catepilers to eat. We had 30 make it to butterflies. Great product

Spacious for leaves, stems, plants, and of course caterpillars and butterflies

The only way to raise Monarchs

When I bought my first milkweed plant, I didn’t realize how attached I became to making sure my caterpillars became butterflies. First, birds, then flies, and then wasps- they really need help and the cage made a major difference. All of them left the cage via jumping on a chopstick and sticking the chopstick near a flower.

I haven’t tried the cage yet because it’s a gift for my best friend. Everything was great as far as the shipping and I really enjoy your email updates.
Thanks

Wow!

Love it! Can see very clearly! Good quality!

MUST HAVE

At first I thought I didn’t need to spend the money. I drilled holes in the top of a Tupperware container. Plant clippings last a day and would fall over. I finally bought 2 sets. It’s a must have. Milkweed cuttings stand straight and last days. I had no problems with cats on the platforms. Easy to vacuum out too.

Long peg racks

The tubes are ok. I dont feel that they kept the milkweed alive very long. I also had a lot of cats make crystlis on the holders

Hi Karen, to prevent caterpillars from pupating on racks, check this out: https://monarch-butterfly-shop.helpscoutdocs.com/article/110-caterpillar-forming-chrysalis-on-floral-tube-rack If you are having issues with wilting cuttings, check this out: https://monarchbutterflylifecycle.com/blogs/raise/monarch-caterpillar-food-milkweed-cuttings

Happy plants, happy cats!

I bought this after doing leaf feedings and keeping plants in jars. I have access to my own milkweed patch and wanted to better utilize the plants. This set up of tubes and a rack was perfect! The kit comes with two racks and multiple tubes. This enables me to set up one rack in the cage and have a back up. When it's time to get more plants I can set up the back up rack and tubes outside the cage and swap when ready with little disturbance to the cats. This also enables me to remove just one tube for another full plant when needed, or if I need to add more water (which happens only rarely!). If I have lots of hungry cats I can put both racks in and alter the configuration of the plants accordingly. I have never had cause to use all tubes at once - but I appreciate that I always have back up tubes when needed! I have never had a cat climb down the tubes - not sure if this is a texture issue, or what, but my cats now seem to only J on the leaves (my previous set up had them going to the top of the cage). Great set and I'm looking forward to using long into the future! (Picture of four 5th instars making quick work of several plants!)

Fabulous experience

Thank you for the best way to raise monarch butterflies for those of us who wanted to make a difference but didn’t think we could. Love not only the tools to raise them but also resources to help us know how to do it. Love my purchase
