Is Reptar's weight okay?

[magpieandstuff]

As of today, Reptar is 18 inches and weighs 570 grams. I do not completely trust the accuracy of my scale, so I also included some pictures of him. What do you guys think?

Hi Maggie...he looks good, not too thin or too fat. I don't think he looks like he's that heavy, my guess would be about the 450 -500 gram range. What type of scale do you have, and why are you unsure of accuracy ?

 

[magpieandstuff]

It is an Ozeri gram scale for measuring food. The reason I don't trust the accuracy is because I tested it by weighing the same object over and over again, and a couple times it had been off by a few grams.

Do you put him on it multiple times to see if there's a variation then ?

 

[magpieandstuff]

I weigh him by putting him in a container and setting it on the scale, so his legs and tail don't hang off. I weighed him three times. The scale read 568, 570 and 571 grams (excluding the weight of the container).

That should be accurate then.....he looks very svelt for 570 grams. If you're sure the scale is reliable then that's his weight.
