I'm having trouble finding playsand (I'm guessing it may be a bad time of year or something) - is there any kind of reptile sand that is safe to use until I can find playsand? I realize the reptile sands cost more, but I just want to know if any are okay to use (like Reptisand, Vitasand, etc).
Also, when shopping for birdseed what do I need to watch out for? So far it seems I need to avoid sunflower shells and cracked corn - is this correct? Or do I need to avoid all corn and even sunflower seeds (w/o shells)? I saw a bag of Pretty Bird Premium Finch seed mix and thought it might be okay?
Finally, I'm going to try the what Doug recommends for a hide (with the tubing, etc) - what dimensions do I need to look for in a tub? I was thinking of using the gladware disposables like Sunfox, but wasn't sure what size to go for.
I'd also appreciate any tips/advice anyone would like to offer that perhaps is not often found on caresheets or you've learned the hard way about, etc.
Thanks in advance!
