I only have normal ingrediant weighing scales and some of my bus won't fit in them so i need some proper ones, all the baby scales i have seen are severla hundred pounds which i can't afford to spend on a set of scales.
Does andone have any and can tell me wher eyou got them from? Thanks
 
Can you put a large bowl on the scales and then the bun in the bowl? That's how I weigh mine, but it does depend on them sitting still in the bowl.

I have tried that and they all scrap and jump out apart from Lionel as he is so small he fits in a large bowl nicely :lol:

:lol: I must just have chilled bunnies then - once they're in the bowl they just sit there scowling at me.
 
with our old cats n buns we used to weigh ousleves then jump on with the pet in our arms and work out the diff from that to get the weight.
with a frenchie its easiest!!:lol:
 
I weigh mine in normal kitchen scales, of course, mine are diddy!! Rimmi is great at it but Winter is such a pain and struggles and then jumps out, lol, I feed her a fenugreek while shes sat in there to show her that it is good :p

Could you not use a normal set of human scales but change the measurements so its in lb instead of stone or something? I dont know!!
 
I got my baby scales from ebay - the seller was called bambino world or something like that. I had to bid on quite a few to get a good price but ended up paying about £26 inc p&p.
 
I've got baby scales from ebay too - although mine were second hand. Think I paid about £30 but they're soooooooo easy to use compared to faffing around with kitchen scales. They're pretty much identical to the ones used by my vet.

I do that too. Although I got new (human) scales and as long as I put a towel over the top and something nice to nibble Vin will hop over and sit on them. It's handy as they can read in lbs and kg.
 
I put ours on the normal bathroom scales, same with foster buns too when they arrive :) Theyre digital and take literally a second to give a reading.
