    Weighing scales
    So I noticed that the standard to measure your snakes growth seems to be weight rather than length, and im wondering exactly what scales you guys use to get an accurate reading?

    I got the 1000 gram electronic scale from mgreptiles.com. It seem pretty good.

    I use the "Good Chef" scale from Wal-Mart.... but I'm going to be using the one that mlededee uses soon. :) The "Good Chef" works and all, but it has a power saving mode that thinks it's smarter than you are and turns itself off by the time you can return one snake to the rack, and get another one out. :( Very frustrating!
