I want to fill my coop and run with sand, my local Rock place (idk what it's called) offers three types:
400


400


400


Which of these looks the closest to the right kind of sand? I found these pictures online of what it should look like:
400

If you use sand, what do you use and where do you get it?!
Thank you for any help!
 
I suggest the last CONN SAND. You want something that is course. The FILL SAND would be a second option. Plaster sand looks too fine. I use concrete grade sand (locally here they call it torpedo???) in the certain areas of coop and run. (small sections) Rest of run is earth and grass clippings turned hay.
WISHING YOU BEST...

Great pics!!

Go with the con sand, the others are way too fine.

Unless you live in the desert( and you might) sand is not the greatest bedding long term.
