Thank you for apologising meggie - although you should have adressed it to kev rather than all of us. I know you are young but you do need to treat other forum members with respect and welcome new ones, giving help and support not critisism and complaint. xxx

where is the cheapest place to get digi scales ?

sorry

Told you I was just paranoid - I dont even thing straight! At least when I put him in box he stays still and then I carefully place box on scales, so think this is my way of doing it....even if it makes no difference between my way and yours! xxx
Remmy Posted - 19/09/2009 : 12:14:06
If that is what you are worried about Kellog, even doing it your way could still mess up the weight with movement lol
Kellog Posted - 18/09/2009 : 20:32:56
They are the type of scales I have but still worry about movement of putting Kellog in box will mess up weight. Know I am just paranoid! xxx

Do realise that but always worry that movement of putting Kellog in box will mess up results so prefer to do it this way to ensure correct results.

What is Tare function Remmy? xxx

Tare funtion, turn the scales on and it is on zero, then put a box on the scales and press tare and it puts it back to zero again so you dont have to work the weights out.

Think i explained it ok Kellog

thanks kellog, you say you weigh the box first, may i suggest that befor you turn your scales on put the box on them and then turn them on it should read 0 and then put the snake in, just saves having to weigh two things hope this helps

Use digital scales. Choose a box to weigh him in - I use a shoebox with air holes in and kitchen roll on the base because of his size - and weigh it on the scales. Note weight. Put scales back to zero, place snake in box then box on scales. Note weight.

(Snake + box) - box = snake weight.

Hope that is helpful. I usually try and weigh each feeding day as Kellog feeds every 10 days.
