sand help

[Gecksta]

I went to my local Bunnings and a saw play sand that said it was child friendly. Does that mean it can be used for my geckos?

If it's the white/yellow sand then yes just dry it out first.

Yep should be fine. I use the double washed sand.

I've used Washed Sydney sand (for my Thick tail/Knobbies) and the washed play sand for inverts etc with no problem from Bunnings.

I use this sand for my geckos it's fine for geckos that don't burrow but if yours do like Levis etc add some red desert sand to help form and stabilise a tunnel.

Once you buy the sand do you have to wash it?

Once you buy the sand do you have to wash it?

I dont, my geckos are healthy...not sure of others though

should be fine but if you realy want to be sure put it in a rag and wash it

I went to get some playsand yesterday but all the bags were mouldy, Im now using river sand but my gecko hasnt burrowed into it.

And reptilemaniac, why are you bumping a thread after less than 2 hours?

 

[Snakeluvver2]

What else do you need to know?
Sand from bunnings double washed = ok
