The My-Weigh 7001DX is the scale I bought for my personal use and I have used it to weigh all of my Drys. It has performed quite well so far and the only complaint I have would be the size of the weighing platform, which is a bit small. This really isn't a problem, as it easily accomodates a five gallon bucket with a Safari lid, great device and worth a look for anyone who hasn't heard of them, which I place the larger specimens into for weighing, and this is tared out prior to introducing the snake.
While I agree with Chris, a 0.1g increment accuracy wouldn't be
required for weighing the snakes themselves, I have found such to be an invaluable tool when weighing eggs during the course of incubation and the 18.00 Triton T2 would work well for such.
Also, I use an Ohaus Explorer Pro HC in the lab and it is an incredible instrument, but a bit costly for home use.
