OK, Home Depot told my daughter that Quickcrete was contractor sand. I will just throw it out and see if I can't find multipurpose sand. Thank you for your response.
They do. Several kinds of plain sand(with no cement added).Quickcrete *may* have plain sand as part of their product line.

Not a bad idea......but even plain sand might have floating dust in it.It might not be worth the time, but you could dump a big spoonful in a glass jar of water to see. If it has cement in it, some gray cloudy puffs will billow up.
Yes they are in a controlled coop. I just wanted to make sure about the sand. I have first Saturday lime, wood ash, a little pine shavings and a little yarded an dirt. Just need an answer about the sandWelcome to BYC.
Is there a reason that they can't just dig their own dust baths in the ground?
If so, don't use any kind of potting soil that has any sort of fertilizer, water beads, or any other additive. Plain dirt.
