    Weighing - I use our kitchen scales, put a RUB on them, zero with the RUB on, then pop the snake in the RUB. The scales are supposed to be accurate +/- 1g, which will have to do because I can't justify a set of lab scales just to weigh a snake - maybe I need to find out where drugs dealers buy their scales from, I can't imagine they pay £75 for a set of scales.
    Are you kidding Chris i imagine drug dealers can afford gold plated ones

    I just had a quick search and found some on Amazon. Interesting that the little pocket scales that weigh down to 0.1g are less than £10, problem is they only weigh up to 100g. The other interesting thing was the "People who bought this also bought".... Pack of 100 1.25"x2" plastic bags... Pack of 200 1.5"x2" plastic bags...
    There were some accurate scales that went up to 3kg for about £20, but I'll stick with the kitchen scales for now.
