Dust and Sand

so here's the story, i needed some dust bath stuff before my order from chinworld came in and i got the dust sand. now my order is in and i dont need it, yet i hate to waste it. do you think it would be fine to combine the sand with the dust. i have 4 packets of sand and 6 pounds of dust......

You know, i have a similar issue at the moment, and I wasn't sure what to do either. I have two brand new cans of dust that are too drying for my chins, and i'm about to order some high quality stuff. I don't want to be wasteful, but what am i supposed to do with this other stuff?

How much of the sand do you have? I don't think mixing is a good idea, but i'm also not experienced in that.

Just use it up or save it for a time when you're running out of dust I don't know about combining them though

therainbowduckie, I saved my sand packets and I used them when I ran out of dust and didn't have a chance to pick some up.

pandaxian, maybe you could donate the other stuff to the SPCA or some other humane society.

the candy cane hath spoken! now we know!

Bunn, I was considering that, but i'm not even sure the human society here handles the chins they get. I'm really going to have to ask. I might have to keep a jar on hand like suggested!

I would probably save it for a rainy day too...the dust will work a lot better than the sand.

Pandaxian... I'm sure the Toronto Humane Society would appreciate the dust donation. I'm not sure if they adopt out chinchillas there.. but if not, they would at least get them every now & then and maybe send them to a Chinchilla Rescue Group... but while in the shelter they would need it... they could also use the dust for the Degus.
