No, its actually very small pebbles or sand.

Ok, now that we got that out of the way..

Will you tell me this.. If I can lay my hands on building sand.. The river kind.. Will it do the same job?

Mareloo, if you get the builders sand, it would be a good idea to wash it real good just in case it has contaminants. Sand for children's sandboxes is already cleaned (and screened), you can use this right away--do you have a Lowe's or WalMart nearby?

I've given my week-old chicks tender blades of grass to eat. No problem, just make sure it isn't sprayed. They also entertained themselves with the grass, playing "keep-away" and you will have lots of fun watching them. Did you see the Treats Chart?

Hencackle.. LOL, no.. nowhere on the whole of the continent is a Lowe's or WalMart. No, children sandboxes.. (you built sandboxes for children????)

I have saw the treats chart. Thank you! I will do the blades of grass, great idea! We also don't spray our grass with anything.. LOL!
