What am I doing wrong with this code?

When the cage eats 15 Blaster Bullets, it will remove itself. That works fine. When two cages are removed, I want it to create a new object, but nothing happens. Here is my code 
public void tryToEat()
    {
        Actor bb1 = getOneIntersectingObject(BlasterBullet.class);
        if (bb1 !=null)
        {
            getWorld().removeObject(bb1);
            eat(BlasterBullet.class);
            bb1Eaten++;
            if (bb1Eaten == 15)
            {
                removeObject();
                cagesDestroyed++;

            }
            if (cagesDestroyed == 2)
            {
                createNewTurtleBlaster();
            }            
        } 
    }

Oops. Sorry, I didn't think that would be needed to solve the problem. Here is my entire cage class. 
import greenfoot.*;  // (World, Actor, GreenfootImage, Greenfoot and MouseInfo)

/**
 * Write a description of class Cage here.
 * 
 * @author (your name) 
 * @version (a version number or a date)
 */
public class Cage extends Animal
{
    private int bb1Eaten;
    private int cagesDestroyed;
    /**
     * Act - do whatever the Cage wants to do. This method is called whenever
     * the 'Act' or 'Run' button gets pressed in the environment.
     */
    public void act() 
    {
        tryToEat();
    }

    public void tryToEat()
    {
        Actor bb1 = getOneIntersectingObject(BlasterBullet.class);
        if (bb1 !=null)
        {
            getWorld().removeObject(bb1);
            eat(BlasterBullet.class);
            bb1Eaten++;
            if (bb1Eaten == 15)
            {
                cagesDestroyed++;
                removeObject();
                
                if (cagesDestroyed == 2)
                {
                    createNewTurtleBlaster();
                }
            }
        } 
    }

    public void createNewTurtleBlaster()
    {
        TurtleBlaster tb;
        tb = new TurtleBlaster();
        World world;
        world = getWorld();
        world.addObject(tb,300,10);
    }

    public void removeObject()
    {
        World world;
        world = getWorld();
        world.removeObject(this);
    }

}

The problem is that the int value cagesDestroyed is counted up one time and then the object is deleted what causes that the value is deleted too. So the value will never be 2. If you declare the variable as static it will count up for every object that is destroyed and then it should work. So you just have to change line 12 to private static int cagesDestroyed;
