    The cheapest sand you can probably buy is at your local pool store. They sell it for your sand filter, and man is it cheap! 13$ for 50 pounds! The man who replaced our sand filter had an extra fifty pound sack afterwards, and he offered it to me free of charge. I am still kicking myself for saying no thanks:(:banghead:

    The cheapest sand is at the beach. FREE! That's where I got mine from... and in different grits!

    And with excrements of various species!

    ....to be honest... I got mine from my daughter's sandbox... :D

    If I need it more coarse or fine I just use a sieve.

    The solution seems pretty simple then... move closer to the beach! ;)

    A wise choice. If you end up travelling to the Hawaiian island of Kauai and you enjoy hiking, might I suggest the Kalalau trail. Just make sure you get a permit well in advance as they only give out a limited amount per day and they go fast. It was my favourite hike of all four islands we visited.

    That's why you have such a big smile in your avatar picture. You're one lucky chicken! Speaking of which, there are tons of wild chickens roaming about the island. I couldn't believe just how many there were.

    Lol, I wish. Yeah the "Chicken Lips" name is just what my Dad would always tell me when I was young and would repeatedly ask "What can I eat?" And since there is no such thing....
