    It was $9.51 with tax. Unfortunately I was down to my very last $20 bill in my wallet or I would have bought the digital one.

    i got to say if you get the chance, it is not a bad lil thing, covers up to 10 pounds, i just grab the whole rack tub, hold the snake and tar it, drop the snake in and there is the weight. no trying to balance, or keep the snake from roaming off it.

    Planning on getting a digital one. The one I have can go up to 7 pounds but it's not totally accurate. You have to read the dial and I'd rather have the accuracy of the digital readout. The analog one will hold me over for now until I get sick of it.

    Every PETCO/PetSmart "reptile specialist" I've spoken to say they feed BPs fuzzy mice. I think it's corporate's way of stunting their growth rate so they can stay cute little babies until they sell.

    Petsmart corporate policy is also that they only feed on Sundays, so he probably wasn't on a 5-day feeding schedule, either. Fortunately, employees who care will feed more than one fuzzy in a sitting.

    Well that one fuzzy is the only one I think it had there. According to their records, it either shed the previous week or was in shed and refused. It looks like they don't even try to offer when it's in shed. They got it in the 21st so at least it wasn't sitting in that tank for too terribly long with another snake.

    Grats on the great save nice looking little guy there. I would wait at least 5 days let him settle then try to feed. I would try a rat pup or large fuzzy. Hold off handeling as much as you can until you get a couple good feeds into him. But he is still a great loiking little guys and a nice save

    So the baby is 100 grams (or that's as close as I can tell). It hooked on after weighing and now I have a very fashionable bracelet. XD
