I am using paper towels in my bearded dragons cage now, but I would like to put sand in. I would like to know what kind of sand is good for bearded dragons.

The list of what people use is quite long. When they are under 8-10” I recommend, non adhesive shelf liner as it is easy to clean. Any particulate substrate like wood, sand… can be ingested and fatal for small Beardies. As they get older I put them on washed play sand available in most hardware stores. You must clean it daily so it doesn't smell. I use the play sand because I think my Beardies love digging. This is why it is messy. Some people use shelf liner and then have a sandbox as well. There are people keeping Beardies on other substrates successfully, but I do not recommend anything other than these 2 choices.
