Default Bathing Sand

Hi,

I'm looking for some Bathing Sand for my 2 Dwarfs, can anyone advise where i can get hold of some?
Pets at Home and my only other local pet store have only had Chinchilla Dust, which I understand can be bad for Hamsters.

Thanks

Everything I have read says the dust is not good, but the Chinchilla Sand Bath is ok so that's what I got. It's the only thing I can find in 3 different pet stores.

P@H sell Chinchilla sand.
Ask if they can order it in for you, they might just be out of stock.
The Dust isn't good for hammies.

I used to have chinchillas and I just use the sand from there.

I got this one - I think it's the one most people use

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Supreme-Petf...hinchilla+sand

Annoyingly it's only an 'add-on' item with Amazon and you have to have £10 worth of Amazon sold goods to add it on to. There are other sellers on that link but they charge a bit more for it.

Viovet also sell it for £4.37 plus postage.

Vetuk.co.uk sell the science supreme chin sand for about the same price as Amazon and they do free delivery over £29. I literally just placed an order so I can't say much for delivery times tho.

They also do the cheapest carefresh I've seen anywhere!

Serendipity even more annoyingly it's now £20 before you can buy add ons or get free delivery with amazon, I have it on subscribe & save with them though so it's cheaper & very flexible so I only buy it when I need to.

I know, I think they want everyone to sign up for Amazon prime, I used to have it but not since it went up to £79 a year (I think)!
