Tall butterfly cubes

These butterfly cubes are fantastic. I have 15 chrysalis in mine right now. Births any time now. And this tall cube allows for the milk weed to grow more. Already have seeds growing for spring. I will keep in these cubes so they are protected.

Great Butterfly Cages

The two cages arrived in good time and in excellent condition. They are already inhabited by caterpillars of varying sizes. I separate the tiniest hatchlings from the larger caterpillars so that the smaller ones
are not accidentally "eaten" by the larger ones. Already this season, I have released 31 Monarch butterflies from these cages, including a cage I had from last year. These cages provide excellent protection
from flies and other marauding insects. They really enhance the joy of the hobby.

Hope

Absolutely love our monarch house. My husband and I sit and watch our pillars like it was TV. That clear panel is perfect!

Giant size to grow large milkweed or many potted plants

This giant size enclosure is the one to get for serious monarch catepillar raising. Can enclose very large milkweed, or turn on side and put many smaller ones inside. I got two. One to regrow plants and another to protect catepillars. Well made and easy to clean.

Excellent Size

I received the Monarch tower two or three weeks ago. I'm really pleased with the size of it and the side opening door. I'm looking forward to raising our second round of monarchs in it. It's large enough to hold several plants. Thanks !

Excellent butterfly cage

Well made, easy to use. Great customer service!

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!)
