Weight scale suggestion

Nicole Mok

Young Bun
Hi, I've got two Netherlands dwarfs and I would like to weight them regularly. Two rabbits weight are currently between 0.97kg to 1.70kg. Any suggestion which one is good to use?
 
good question, I have been looking for a good one myself. baby weighing scales sounds ideal, any specific recommendations? always good to know what others use and what therefore works well. :)
 
I saw my vet uses baby one, but seems like a bit big and when they stand it's quite slippery. Anymore suggestion?
 
i can't remember what make they are. they were from very.co.uk though so i'm probably still paying for them :oops: i just put a towel or blanket on so they don't slip. the piggies get weighed on there aswell :love:
 
For Nethies you'd be fine with kitchen scales. Try training them with treats to sit on the scale on command :)
 
Bramble will happily sit on the scales (she's sat on a mini tray thing that you put microwave meals on to stop her foot falling off the edge)

 
When I had bunnies I used baby scales as they were bigger bunnies. I used to put a bit of hay in the bottom to stop them slipping around.:)
 
Aww.. Bramble is so cute!! :). Mine are two middle size Netherland dwarf. The girl one should be fine on the kitchen scale, just my boy is a bit big, so I may need to bigger tray for him. Thank you all for the ideas, I will get the scale tomorrow!!
