Recommend Me a Gram Scale

I need to accurately keep track of my snake's weight going on forward as I have two that have stopped feeding regularly, and I'm beginning to worry about them losing weight (one looks underweight and only eats a small meal every three months). So what are some good options out there for a gram scale for small-medium sized snakes?

Go to walmart or bed bath and beyond and get the cheap kitchen one. $15-$20ish.

Ya pretty much any kitchen scale that has a max weight appropriate to the type of snake you're weighing.

Staples sell digital mail scales that weigh in very tiny amounts.
