The PetsMart here sells only chin dust, and I was looking on Amazon for sand.... Most of the recent reviews seem to indicate Kaytee has changed that product from actual sand to more of a dust type. (What is it with Kaytee fiddling with their products? ) Though I assume you haven't noticed any thing bad about it?

The only other chin sand on Amazon is $20+.

I love that miniature bathtub in your second post; that's brilliant!
