Default Chinchilla Bath Sand?

Hi everyone,

Since I am a new Robo owner I wondered if this was an ok product to use? It's Chinchilla Bath Sand by Super Pet. (I did not give this to them yet...waiting for expert answers!!)
I just want my lil ones to be happy!

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi there, yeah that is fine to use, as long as it's SAND and not DUST. Dust can be dangerous to hammies if inhaled. I use Charlie Chinchilla Sand for mine, not sure if that's available over there!!

Mine love to roll around in it, I also use mine in there toilets!

Yes as long as it is sand it will be fine. When you open it feel it to see it feels a bit like fine beach sand and not powdery like flour.

That's the same sand I give all of my hams. I am going to switch to Charlie Chinchilla (like cornishrobos mentioned) though as it comes in bigger portions instead of those little pouches. It's a better deal too. It is hard to find and the only place I could find it was on Amazon.com. They come in 64oz containers.
