    Buying a scale?
    Where's the best place to buy a scale that would be big enough to weigh an adult female bp but also a baby?

    I just got a scale on Amazon. It's an Escali and will weigh up to 11lbs, in grams or ounces, which is probably plenty you'll need from a baby to an adult. I haven't had it long but it's worked great so far. Cost me about 27 bucks total with shipping and everything.

    When looking into scales you want to concider what other uses it will be used for.. will you be weight hatchlings too? How about food items? Do you need a scale that goes up to 2, 5, 10 15 pounds? Does it measure in grams? What increments? Does it measure in 0.1 gram increments? 1.0 gram increments? 2.0 gram increments? 5 gram increments? Does it run off battery or cable? How long does it stay on before it automatically shuts off? All of these things may be things you want to look at.

    I use an "American Weigh" scale that I got off eBay about a year ago. It was priced good and it weighs up to 50lbs in g's or oz's. I use it to weigh my shipments, my snakes, my chinchilla's, my guinea pig, etc. It's a great scale and I love it.

    Here is the link to it:

    You can find one on eBay for about $15 if you are lucky.
