Is kiddies playing sand safe for rabbits to dig in? Thinking of a cleaner alternative to soil :lol:

Just fishing for ideas for when I do the shed up on the garden for my bun for summer. Was thinking a sand pit with sand and toys and stuff. Anyone else got this?

Unfortunately my indoor bun has a bad reaction and allergic to chinchilla sand, so if your buns start sneezing, I would stop using it.

I use a mix of play sand and soil, and always keep it damp so it doesn't get dusty

Chinchilla sand is much finer and more dust like than play sand which is like the stuff you'd find at the beach
