Hi-

All you need to do is raise the drippers off the cages so that when the water line lets out drops, they have to fall a few inches. This will force the drops to go right through the cage screen. Hope this helps!

When you first place the dripper on the cage and the water starts to flow out of the tube, tap the screen. This will break the surface tension and it will drip from that point on.

I also set the dripper so one side is on the frame. This creates a slight angle giving you down hill pressure so you get the most of the water out of the dripper.
