This is a newer version of the one I have. It is also the supplier I purchased from.

The CS2000-001 would be fine. It weighs to 2000 grams in 1 gram increments which is fine for Bearded Dragons. I have had mine for years and have never even replaced the battery. I weigh every animal every week and record it.
I used to use one sold in the reptile trade but it was poor quality and although it was guaranteed and replaced you get tired of waiting while you ship back and forth.
Go the walmart food preparation and appliance area.
They have digital scales with glass tops... made for weighing food and such.
the work great and are reasonably priced
Food and postal scales are generally designed to weigh in oz. That usually means they weigh in only 5 gram increments. So be sure you check what the gram increments are and the weight limit before you purchase one.
It weighs in grams, I assure you.
Good ole Wally World does the trick for a nice scale.
It's gray with blue outline buttons and a glass top.
It is accurate and zeroes itself out etc.
Was like 20 bucks.
You can get 1 gram increments in kitchen scales..though not all Walmarts may have them in stock...The one near my place didn't have any the last time I checked but it was awhile ago now. However I can get digital 1 gram increment scales at kitchen specialty stores in malls but they do tend to be a bit more expensive. Been waiting for a good sale on them...unless I find them at Walmart next time I look

Yes... the wally world special measures in one gram increments.
Have to look at the food prep section where all the appliances are.
