Fantastic product and customer service from AFS. Both of my new queens and broods moved into the foundling terras from the test tubes on there own within hours, I have a few different products from AFS and the build quality is great on everything. I ordered a second delivery in the same week as my first due to the products are far superior to others I already have

The order arrived quickly & my son quickly set it up with his 'Queen' who promptly (to our delight & surprise) laid her first eggs! Thanks so much. We'll be buying from you again. Your advice too is much appreciated. 😊

I had expected something that'd last a season, but it seems really well made. I bought 2 products for a couple of small rubra queens. I have no doubt these could easily be used to house up to 100+ without much of a problem, the top sliding plastic fits really well, the test tubes fit really well too. My existing fit on the same. 1 test tube purchased from another company doesnt fit very well at all, I made it work though. Highly recommend this product to anyone who has just got a queen.
