Reptile scoop. I hadn't checked the pet stores for something yet, but every other store I've been in. Today we ended up with a thin mesh net (butter fly net like) from the dollar bins at Target. Works perfect, but the reptile scoop would be quite handy as well.
I went with sand for my 6 chicks as well. We stopped at TSC for dog food and found restocked sweet PDZ and picked up a bag of that. I cleaned the brooder when I got home and need to sprinkle some of that over the sand here shortly.
They play in the sand and even when they drop/fling food into the sand, they are good about picking out the food to eat instead of the sand.
poop scooped out goes to the garden beds.
