Smile Sand and Also Quaranteen

Hi guys,

right, to the point. is argos play sand suitable for replacing repti sand (NOT calci sand) as it is about time i got some new sand. i know alot of you will disagree with using sand, but i have had no problems and want to stick with what i know, thanks.

also is there anything i need to do with the sand? like cooking or something like that? if so how do i go about that

Quaranteen

whats the minimum qauranteen period befor introducing leopard geckos, as i have heard as little as 2 weeks and as longs as 12months? i will obviously wait till they are the same size, but i would like some knowledge on the qaurenteening period

thanks again

Dan

Thumbs up

we use argos play sand in our bearded dragon vivs with no probs all i do is cook it in a baking tray a bit at a time as it is so wet when you get it and it will push your humidity up

( best go get yourself a new tray from wilkos)
