Title: Scales for poultry weights
Post by: Don on October 07, 2017, 12:42:46 PM

Anyone have any experience or suggestions for which types of scales work best for use in shows comparing exhibits to the standard weights?

Thank you Paul.  That looks like it will work great.  I will send you an email to discuss the process of weighing that you've seen work best.

Just noticed this post. Couldn't help but laugh at the thought of weighing birds at shows. I once had a judge tell me that they couldn't carry scales up and down the isle, but it you had to grunt to pick up a "supposed to be cockerel", he was too big.

Just saying.....
