Do Winter White Hamsters like sandbath or they just ignore them :D?

Ours love 'em! I've been trying to get a picture of them rolling in their sand as it looks hilarious - but sadly no luck so far. They used to have a round bowl which they didn't use as much as those they have now - they each have a Ferplast oblong dish of sand - here's Sparrow's:

My WW loves his. He's finally figured out it's not for eating! I saw him rolling around in it for the first time yesterday and he looked so cute :) He's also taken to using it as his potty so I'm always cleaning it out.

Which sandbath am I suppose to get since I hear a lot of people say get the Chinchilla sandbath.

I'm not familliar with that one but it looks fine. You need to avoid the "dust".

We use Charlie Chinchilla - not sure if you can get it in the US but I'd have thought so:

The chin sand is fine, just don't use the dust, as it's too fine, and can cause respiritory problems.
