Q & A / Sand as Bedding
« on: October 21, 2010, 07:15:37 PM »
Hi everyone.
Thank you moderator for letting me in.
I wonder if anyone have tried sand as bedding.
My daughter had these chinchillas for about 5 years now, and lately I have noticed a small
fly infestations in the house. I've learned that these flies breed in decaying organic matter, I suspect
they breed on the wood bedding.
I wonder if we could use sand as bedding, but worried that sand may not be safe for the chins.
Expert's advice is highly appreciated.
