I use a rub on digital sales. I put the rub on the scales and zero it, then put the snake in the rub.

I weigh them like this:



Adding a ruler and taking a pic means I get all the data in one go - weight, length and what they looked like :) I calculate the length later using this tool: http://serpwidgets.com/main/measure

1.0 anery stripe (Nash)
1.0 hypo pewter (Loki)
1.0 bloodred het amel, charcoal, hypo, stripe 50% phet anery, lavender (Kasumi)
0.1 grey background normal het amel (Saphira)
0.1 tessera het amel, anery, stripe (Lilith)
0.1 amel (Aurora)
0.1 hypo bloodred het anery, charcoal, stripe 50% phet amel, lavender (Mara)
