Chinchillas have specific requirements when it comes to their coat care. The animals must have a sandbox with a layer of chinchilla sand in it. Chinchillas take care of their sensitive coat by taking a sand bath. In particular, the sand ensures that the coat is degreased and thus remains in good condition.

We advise you to always look carefully at the dimensions of the sandbox to make a correct assessment whether the sandbox is suitable for your accommodation and animals. A sandbox for chinchillas should be spacious enough to roll comfortably in. The sandbox must also keep as much sand inside as possible. If we were to bathe chinchillas on a flat shell, there would be more sand next to the shell than in it within a considerable time. Our chinchilla sandboxes are made to keep as much sand in as possible. It is also nice if a sandbox is open from above. This makes it easier to get the poo out. A sandbox with plexiglass is great fun for the owners because we can see the chinchillas rolling in the sand so well.

When using a plastic sandbox, we recommend that you only offer it to your chinchillas under supervision. Do you really want to permanently install the sandbox in the accommodation? Then we recommend choosing a gnaw-resistant sandbox.
