...wow that was fast! It was shipped Monday and arrived today :D

So I set it up and took a couple of pictures with the fids on it. Beebers came in at 90g's which is on the average size for a tiel.

The picture doesn't show Amys weight on the read-out coz of the flash (I guess :confused:) He did loose weight! Down from 548 to 504. 504 is the "high side" of her usual weight.

I'm happy I finally got a scale,now I can keep proper records.

I love that scale! Great news about Amy losing some more weight!
Both Amy & The Beebs look like they didn't mind sitting on it at all, that will make it so much easier.

They both hopped right on Terry! It took a couple times with BB tho because he was off flying to me before I could snap his picture :p

We have the same make scale, just without the perch.
Just lay a towel on it and as long as Arika has a treat, she stays in the center and we get a reading. We've been very happy with it and haven't had any issues.
Looks like both your babies are happy with it as well. Good to hear Amy has lost some and is slimming down :)

RIP Gandalf and Big Bird, you are missed.
I'm impressed to know Amy and Beebs hopped right on. Most of my flock dislikes the scale! Great job with Amy's weight!!

Now I'm on a mission to keep the kids super healthy lol. I weighed Amy around 10am (before brekky and after pooping) this morning he weighed 510g's. He was at 507 yesterday not 504.
Anyway..for the next few weeks I will weigh both kids twice daily..before brekky/after creating "boon":rolleyes: and before bedtime,just to get an idea on how things go.
Again,I'm real happy I purchased this thing,kind of puts my mind at ease a little,since weight is so very important on keeping my babies healthy.
