Hello everyone,
I can't find anything online about using sand as bedding for baby chicks, but it seems like it would be a good idea. Since a little sand is recommended for them anyway, it doesn't seem like it would harm them, and it seems like it would be easy to keep clean since you could just scrape off the top layer every so often.
Please let me know if anyone has tried this or if you know of any problems it may pose. I'm new to raising baby chicks and don't want to do anything to harm my adorable little babies!
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!
Melissa
