Review on πŸ¦‹ Backyard Safari Company Butterfly Collection 2456004 by Dewey Tory

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good simple design in education and training

Overall I am very happy with this butterfly habitat and was able to release 8 monarch butterflies at the end of the season. I kept this on the patio table for protection along with an umbrella for fear that our house would be too dry. Since it was stored outdoors I found that a heavy weight was needed to keep it from blowing away on a windy day. My only real complaint is that some monarch caterpillars have their cocoons attached half to the opening side of the lid and part to the side. This made them a bit difficult to open without damaging the cocoons. It seemed like a side opening could prevent this problem, but probably wouldn't work with a pop-up design unless it was a smaller opening that would cause other problems. This is a nice, simple design and did a great job of protecting both caterpillars and butterflies from any kind of injury.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • There are nuances
