I ordered mine from Reptile Basics.

Harbor Freight Tools and Supplies has a nice deal for a packet scale that measures to .01 of a gram for like 13 bucks. LLLReptile also has a little one they sell for a pretty good price.

Also I was thinking about getting this one for my self ...

I use the 7001DX and just love it. Weighs perfectly, has a hold feature which is very handy when you are trying to control a busy snake and not lose that weight reading and hardly goes through any batteries.

You can find it here....

Having used Reptile Basics tons of times, personally I'd recommend them.

QFT. Awesome scale! :gj:

i got one from target. i dont know how well its going to work though, i didnt think about getting one with an attatched bowl, so i have to put something on top for him to sit in and it looks a little precarious lol so i think ill be returning it. i like the look of that one online. the 7001DX i think?

You can look around, also if you have a local smoke shop close to you i know they have a large selection. ;)

Typicaly the scales they would have do not measure more than 500 grams - which renders the scale useless after your snake is a year old. Those scales are also MUCH more expensive i.e $45 and they are very small.

Whoops - double post

At smoke shops? Since when? Last time I checked, smoke shops sell scales to weigh, well - stuff you can smoke (which is not usually more than a pound...)

I got mine from Target for $30 and it weights up to 2000g. I would go with Reptile basics because for only $20 more you get a scale with 5000g more capacity and a bowl to hold he snakes.

I got my at office max. I thinks it was like $12.

Walmart food section, $20, weighs all but my heftiest girl Haurie(she apparently weighs "err")
I think it goes to 2200grams. Eventually I'll get one that weighs up to 5000 grams, but for right now, I don't need it, all but 2 of my snakes are still under 2200 grams.
Cool thing, you can swap it to lbs from grams at a touch. Could be handy if you wanted to see how much chocolate you have on hand after halloween.

I got a postage scale on ebay for around $30, shipped. It goes up to 56 lbs, I believe.
