Best cheap scales?

Hey everyone

i was was just wondering what scales are the best for weighing snakes? What do you guys use, what are the cheapest, and where did you buy?

Without buying one online, I went to walmart and purchased a nice digital food scale for 20 bucks.
Im sure theres real nice ones online for the same price tho

Same here as BigJay, I just made sure it could measure in grams.

I put the snake in a snake bag and hang from one of those digital scales off eBay . Similar to he type used by anglers / fishermen ..... they come in all different sizes and you can choose between grams / ouncesf / lbs / kg etc etcetera

Very cheap and remarkably accurate

I got mine from Walmart. I believe the brand is Mainstays. Works well, no complaints at all.

I got mine off Amazon for $10. It is digital measures in grams and ounces. measures accurately as well (tested on various items first).

So how do you people weigh snakes that are active as there's no way some of mine would happily sit in a bowl on some scales ....

My adult king is a pain to weigh sometimes. But I have a tall, cylindrical old cotton candy tub that he fits in. He usually goes right in and sits still long enough to be weighed, but not much longer.

I couldn't think of anything easier than my way tbh .. Snake bag on portable hanging scales
