I'm looking to buy a relatively inexpensive grams scale to weigh my beardie. Does anyone know where I can buy one?

I'd try Ebay first. Then I'd try places like Walmart, Bimart, and Target. And places that sell scientific supplies to schools will have scales. Good luck. If I come across any cheap scales, I'll let you know.

I just checked on Ebay and I typed in "Digital Scale" in the search area and I saw a nice 5 pound postal/kitchen digital scale for $10.50 that ends in 20 minutes! Also saw lots of others for pretty good prices..

Good luck.

Thanks!

i couldn't find any digital scales at walmart or target (and i asked). but that could just be the ones around my area.. as far as finding a cheap one goes.. look on ebay or any office supply store. i got a sunbeam scale that weighs up to 5 pounds at office depot for 30 dollars. i works good for me since all of my lizards are under that.

my local target has a "Kitchen Scale" I just got the other day:

generic box in the kitchen goods area.

digital, uses 4 AA cells, cost was $29.95

has a "tare" button to zero it out

does not do grams but does ounces and can go upto 4 1/2 pounds.

so I put a plate or a bowl on the scale empty hit tare then put the dragon in/on the bowl or plate and see how many oz. he is and then use this set of conversions:
1 Gram == 0.035273961 Ounce
1 Ounce == 28.34952313 Grams

Grams == Ounces * 28.34952313

Ounces == Grams * 0.035273961

so 12 oz. == 340 grams for example

Walmart out of the kitchen department. It has a tare button, does pounds, ounces and grams. Cost about $20 I think...

But the BIGGEST selection and best prices for gram scales are at head shops (AKA shops full of drug paraphenila that we pretend are for tobacco). The one buy my house has six or seven different models...I always think about getting one.
