    Re: Digital Scale??

    I got mine fairly cheap at Walmart. In the food section(where you find ice cream scoops and measuring cups!) and it's a digital scale, which goes up to something like 2300 grams. My biggest girl makes it say "eRR", but for the rest it's fine.
    Best scale I've found for $20 or less.
    Later I'll get a better one that can weigh even my biggest girls. But for starters, it's great.

    I also have the food scale from WalMart but I am looking to upgrade it to one of these:

    The thing I like about these is that you can buy the AC adapter for them. My WalMart scale uses batteries and when they are running low it isn't accurate.

    I have that scale and it is great! Nice big tub to put the snake in and, as far as I can tell by using a comparison scale, accurate weights!

    I use the 7000 gram one from Reptile basics. I have had it for a few months now I use it once a month it has been great for me. Not sure where its made but again has been great for me. I did have the digital kitchen scale from Walmart but it only went up to 2000 or 2500 grams.

    I picked up the 7000g one from Reptile Basics. Great investment! Only had it for a short while, but I've been able to use it for weighing my BP and each of his meals since then. It gets an A+ from me.
