Hello! Looking for advice from anyone that uses sand in their coop or run. I want to try using sand in my run this summer and I want to make sure I buy the appropriate kind. I mostly see "river sand" recommended here. I can't find anything by that name around me but it seems like sand names and descriptions vary from place to place. Based on how I've seen "river sand" described, 2ns sand looks like the closest thing I have found, though it is also described as "sharp sand" so I am not sure if it would be safe for the chickens feet or if they were to ingest it. Would i be better to go with a uniform all purpose type sand and just mix bags of chicken grit in?
I greatly appreciate any info and recommendations!!
