cam1 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 (edited) Hi sorry to be a bit dense what scales do any of you recommend to weigh eggs i have a manual scale but dont think that it will be sensitive enough for when the girls decide to start laying...will any digital food scale do? Also can they be too pampered the kids just want to cuddle them all the time or have them sitting on their laps. they are in and out of the sitting room all afternoon thank goodness for laminate floor roll on return of school. Thanks cam amber lee- velma bovan goldline- mya just reread i mean the chickens are in and out all of the time (as well as the kids!) they are sat on the settee leather(wipeable ) and all over !

Ain't Nobody Here Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Hi Cam . I just got a fairly cheap set from Ebay (about £10 I think). There are fancy ones about but as long as it does grammes it should be fine for your eggs! I use mine for cooking as well now - much more accurate than my old set. I don't think pampering is a bad thing - it'll get them really used to being handled which can only be good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulesL Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Mine are the cheapest digital scales you can find in the Argos catalogue. Salter make and were £14.99 I think. They are brilliant - very impressed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Mine were from Argos if I remember correctly. I think they were about £15.00. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bokbokbok Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I picked up a set this afternoon in Tescos which were half price at £10. They seem quite good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoice Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Got mine by saving up the nescafe beans and paying postage (£2). Not bad scales either http://www.nescafe-pickmeups.co.uk/Content/3_Your_home/Kitchen_Scales.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubyReckless Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 I've had the Salter ones for years - good for egg weighing, obviously, and fantastic for baking because you can put your bowl on and reset it to zero as you add ingredients Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
