Find a store that sells gram scales usually used to weigh food. They are usually in the kitchen products area.

Yeah I figured that I would need scales. In just not entirely certain of the procedure. I guess I'll put him in a tub, after zeroing the scales and then put him in it! Just wasnt sure if there was a proper way.

Yep, put the tub on the scale, zero out the scale and then put him in the tub.

Re: Handling problems :(
some young snakes will be ok to handle when they first start to eat. then they go into a stage where they will become more aggressive and strike . if you do nothing at all, most will out grow it. it's a stage that some of them go thru. if it bothers you where you almost dropped it. best to leave it alone until it gets a little more size to it. I offer my hatchlings food every 3 days, I don't offer them a large meal, but I still can see a slight bulge after feeding.
