Most hamster safe containers can be used as a sandbath

I use a ikea jar for my ww
A large food bowl for my chinese
A hamster potty for one of my robos
A large deep ceramic dish for my 7 robos
For my 2 gerbils & other robo i use a metal food/water bowl

I use bird baths - the type you put in budgie cages, big, covered and quite deep so that the sand seems to stay in there...just another thought

Some of ours have the hooded hamster potties which you can get in most pet stores and some have ceramic cat saucers from Wilkos at about £2, You can use a shallow plastic dish like a Chinese Takeaway dish too!
