Default Chinchilla sand safe?

Hello!! I need help, i'm not quite sure if the sand i'm using is safe. Can't tell if it's dusty.

I don't know that brand, it may be ok but depends on how dusty it is, most people use this one.

I’ve never heard of that brand but as long as it’s not dusty it should be okay. I have 5 hamsters so I use children’s play sand as it’s much better value (£5 for 15kg), its dust-free and non-toxic but it will need drying out before giving to hamsters. The fastest way to dry it out is in the oven.

Looks like it's not too fine like dust
