Bathing sand for rodents and Chinchillas

Supreme Bath Sand for rodents!

Supreme Badzand has been specially developed for small steppe and desert dwellers. There are two types of bath sand available from Supreme: Friends Farm and Selective . The Friends Farm is standard bathing sand and the Selective is a premium version that is also suitable for animals with sensitive skin.

The particularly fine grain and velvety structure nourishes the coat and frees it from dander, dirt and grease. High-quality bath sand is also indispensable for nail care. This allows the rodents to wear their nails naturally.

The Selective sand is also suitable for animals with sensitive skin and has an optimal round grain.

Supreme Bath Sand is essential for some small animals and fun for other animals, such as hamsters or gerbils. Our Bathing Sand is 100% natural sand and is completely dust and bacteria-free. It is also naturally absorbent. It is often chosen by owners of show chinchillas for ideal coat condition.

✔ 100% Natural Sepiolite
✔ Resealable packaging
✔ For good coat condition

Chinchillas need a sand bath daily. Place the sand in a tall container or litter box and let your chinchillas roll in it. They will have a great time and the sand will help keep their coat healthy by removing excess oil.

Degus also need regular sand baths to keep their coat free of naturally secreted oil. Degus need a sand bath at least twice a week.

NB! Chinchillas should not be bathed in water because their coat absorbs the water and makes it difficult for the coat to dry. Water in the coat can lead to hypothermia, which can be fatal.

What is Sepiolite?

Sepiolite is a mineral that belongs to the clay minerals. Sepiolite is often used as bathing sand for hamsters and other rodents because it mimics the properties of their natural habitat. Sepiolite is a natural mineral formed by the deposition of clayey sediment. It has a fine, granular texture similar to the soils in which hamsters dig and tunnel in the wild. Thanks to the presence of this clay, the tunnels remain intact in the wild.

Sepiolite is usually extracted through mining techniques, in which the sepiolite deposits are extracted from the ground. After extraction, these sepiolite deposits undergo a process of processing and purification. For example, sepiolite is also extracted from the desert in Syria ( original habitat of the Syrian Hamster ). Sepiolite is also mined in Mongolia. Mongolia has significant sepiolite reserves and is known for the presence of high-quality sepiolite deposits. The mineral is mainly mined in the southern regions of Mongolia ( native habitat of the Mongolian Gerbil )

Sepiolite has the property of absorbing moisture and fat, making it suitable as bath sand for rodents. It helps to clean the animal's coat and absorb excess oils. In addition, sepiolite can also help reduce odors.
