Description of ๐Ÿฆ‹ Complete Monarch Butterfly Kit: Short Peg Rack + 8 Large Floral Tubes + Milkweed Cuttings + Host Plants - Feed and Nurture Caterpillars!

SHORT PEGS - Having shorter pegs will help so caterpillars canโ€™t form a chrysalis on the rack. Caterpillars will crawl off to form chrysalis on the cage roof. LARGE TUBES AND FLAT LIDS - Our new and improved flat lids on the floral tubes prevent water and poop from pooling on top. The lids are also easier to remove. Tubes have a 48 ml capacity, which is our largest size for less refilling. EASY TO CLEAN - Both the peg rack and floral tubes are easy to clean and are reusable. VERSATILE - Use for milkweed stem cuttings, leaf cuttings, or other host and nectar plants. These plant cutting tubes come with a rack to keep them upright. SECURE AND EFFICIENT - Floral tube racks are the most secure way to elevate tubes, space out caterpillars, and prevent them from crawling around in poop.

Disappointing Purchase, Not for Cats

This product arrived quickly, but unfortunately, it was not what I expected. I wanted to provide my cats with a new bed or piece of furniture, but this just wasn't it. Based on my observations, the butterflies didn't seem to enjoy the milkweed that much either. It's not really a practical item for pet supplies or cat owners.

Pros
  • Quick shipping
Cons
  • Not functional for cats

Better to have!: Beds and Furniture

I was so glad I got this! Euphorbias can be placed in the water hoses and holders until the caterpillars turn into pupae. I just put tubes in a pot of milkweed! So easy!

Pros
  • Beds
Cons
  • Lots of Stuff

Host Plants and Propagation

I love this little setup and wish I could design it myself. They are excellent for host plants or for propagating milkweed. I have had success with monarch eggs and small monarch caterpillars using these flower tubes. Medium to mature plants will work if you have very large milkweed leaves, but you really need to balance the numbers of caterpillars and milkweed. I'm working on breeding Spurge to grow more and share with other nearby Monarch waystations.
