Pico Cage Sand

Kiln dried sand; this sand is used for the floor covering in the cage, a product widely used in Europe. Its advantages over the more commonly used coverings such as wood chips/shavings’ or just paper, are that the sand, (which is a by product of the process of oyster shell grit), is that not only is it incredibly absorbent but it has added to it oyster shell grit, silicium grit and aniseed oil. Not only does it have the desired effect in keeping the cage clean and dry, you don’t have to supply a separate dish for the grit as it’s in the sand with the aniseed it also helps deodorise the room, less mess in the bird room as there is no wood chips/shavings’ being thrown out of the cage and something many of us don’t think of this gives the birds the ability to have a dust bath, one of the first things my canaries and parrot finches first did when I tested the product.
