I read that you should avoid using play sand in the chicken run. They suggested construction sand. My question is what exactly is so bad with play sand?

I use the play sand from Home Depot. It has small pebbles and is more course than the fine play sand at Lowes. I have been using sand for years and have never had a problem with it being dusty. Just use a spray bottle with water to wet it down if you think it is too dusty. I use a kitty litter scoop in the coop and run each morning. It takes about 5 minutes to clean. When I change the sand in the coop, I dump it in the run.I read that you should avoid using play sand in the chicken run. They suggested construction sand.
