It is quite time consuming to get a pretty accurate measurement and you have to use overhead shots for best measurements. I generally take the even more time consuming route and measuring 3 separate pictures all taken on the same day and then average the lengths it gives and thus far it has been pretty accurate.

Here is the website http://serpwidgets.com/main/measure
edit As for weights I use a digital scale they are pretty cheap and you can pick one up at most restaurant supply stores or department stores I think mine was like 25$ and will weigh up to 5000 grams but until they get bigger it will work. I place a Rubbermaid container with its lid on the scale zero it out and then place snake inside wait on them to settle in one place and then read the weight.
