    I am such a complete moron!!

    You know, if you can't poke fun at yourself sometimes...... ok all, we are not all perfect and all knowing. Thought I'd share my latest goof with y'all.

    For the past month or so, I've been weighing my near breeders & possibly gravid girls, so last week I made a comment to my ex that I thought it was weird that most of the girls weighed 1622g...(yeah y'all know where I'm going with this). well I weighed Thema post laying and yup 1622g, then thought how could that be she weighed that before she laid her eggs

    It took me a good five minutes before it came to me.... YOU DOPE!!the scale only goes up to 1622g I have ordered a new scale lol. I can't wait to see what their true weights are.

    Yep, I agree with this. Mine goes up to 5,000 grams and if they get over that, I would be shocked. I bought mine which is digital at Walmart for $20.

    Re: I am such a complete moron!!

    well at least that was a good goof. you could of zero your scale and put the snake in the container and weigh snake and container together. snake weight is less than what you thought. I've done this before, but caught it as soon as I took the snake out of the container leaving it on the scale to weigh the next snake and the scale didn't zero.

    That's hilarious! I would have totally done the same thing...My internet got cut off once because I didn't pay the bill on time, and I didn't feel like going out to pay it, so I decided to pay it online. Thankfully, my bestie was there to save my life before I attempted to log on to pay my bill and then sit there and wonder why I can't get online! I'm a blonde at heart...
