    Anyone Know Where to Find a Scale That Measures in Grams?

    My female anery sand boa is starting to get big. I'm curious as to how many grams she is as well as what my male is even though he is really tiny. I'll be moving in a few months and adding on to my sand boa collection. I may begin to breed not entirely sure but I do know I will need a scale.

    I have a digital scale that I got from Walmart and it goes to 0.5 grams increments, it also can be set for ounces. It was less that $20.

    The more accurate the scale the more expensive. A digital kitchen scale from target or wal-mart should do the trick, check the range to make sure it will suit your needs.

    This is also kind of weird, but a head shop/smoke shop will also have scales.

    the pet stores did not carry one. they both said that they go to harbor freight to buy their "snake" scales.

    If petshops did sell them they would double or triple the price because the petmarket is such a big thing now. You can buy the exact same products in some stores if they have the word "Pet" on them it's usually much more.
