    Recommend Me A New Scale

    My scale only measures up to 3000g. My big man is now well more than this. I guesstimate by how much in goes around from zero. I am guessing he's around 3400g right. But it's a guess. And I'd like it to be more accurate.

    Re: Recommend Me A New Scale

    I picked this one up from Bed Bath and Beyond.

    It works great although with a male that big you will have to use something larger than the bowl that comes with it to weight him in. I weight most of my snakes in their tubs, just zero it out when they're tubs are on the scales, then drop them in and there ya go. Also we get the bed bath and beyond 20% off coupons in the mail all the time so I used that on this and got to get it on sale.
