Hey there. I purchased a leo on Sunday; and have seen a lot of the owners on here weight their leos to see how they are with weight gain. I was just wondering if there were any opinions on which scale may be the best for me. I only have the one leo as of right now; but would like to get a scale so I could monitor the leo's growth. I am looking for something within the 25 - 50 dollar range and that reads to the closest 10'th of a gram (if I can get one that measures to the closest 100'th; even better). New to raising leos; so a little unsure of what to look for in a "quality" scale; but don't want to go spending bokus of dollars for just the one girl. Any assistance with this would be greatley appreciated. Also; how often do you guys usually weigh your leos?? once a week; once every few weeks; once a month?? what is the best way to do this to accurately measure your leo's growth??

i just use a simple kitchen scale from walmart to be honest. i think it cost me 15 bucks. i weigh my leos about once a month, more often if i have one that is close to breeding size.

most of the cheaper ones I see on their sites (Walmart, target, etc) only weigh in increments of the closes gram. Is there any that measure 10'ths or even
100'ths. If possible; I would like one that could measure to the most minute point so I can have an even better idea of my leo's weight. Or is only one gram good enough to be accurate??
