    Ha! I do find it silly on very young animals when people weigh frequently, if it's eating, it's probably fine. I only have one younger growing snake these days but hadn't weighed the two new corns I took on and figured I might as well get a weight on everyone. A big swing in weight up or down would be a cause for concern or food adjustment or a vet trip. I also throw my cats and ferret in the tote and weigh them as long as the scale is out.
