Subject: [ferrethealth] safe potting soil for dig box?
To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com
In an effort to enrich my babies play time, I started a dig box for
them containing potting soil. The box is connnected to their tubes for
an extra fun element. Anyways, I just wanted to run this by with
everyone here to make sure this is safe for my kids. The potting soil
does not appear to contain any fertilizers based on the bag label and
listed ingredients (it was a cheap bag of soil from Walmart, 98 cents
for 10 lbs). The ingredients say "this product is formulated from
organic materials (derived from one or more of the following: hypnum
peat, forest products, or compost), sand, and perlite. In Georgia, this
product is regionally formulated to contain 77-87% aged pine bark, sand
and perlite." Does this sound ok??? I have been supervising their play
thus far. They are definately not eating any of it, but they do get
some in their nose and such, from their play. Please let me know ASAP
if you think this could be a problem, as I would never do anything to
harm my fuzzies intentionally. Thank you.
