I've been told by many Bearded Dragon keepers in the past that you shouldn't use sand for them, it's like making them live in a litter box. Even when you scoop out the poop, all that bacteria is still floating around in there.
I think most people either use newprint, paper towel, tiles, and linoleum, things like that that don't have a granular quality.
Those are great points! Also consider that the beardies could ingest the sand when they eat and become impacted....which is a serious problem, often leading to death in very young beardies...
