Attempted to weigh my new tortoise today and I feel like it was a complete failure. I used a household bathroom scale and set him on it. The first problem I ran into was him trying to walk off. So I put my hand in front of his face, it seemed to slow him down for a second. But the scale only read 34 lbs. I think he's heavier than that. I've had to pick his big butt up enough times. Lol
I weighed him again this time on his back to see if I could get a more accurate reading. But then he wiggled a lot.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to get a better reading? I just feel that he's heavier than 34 lbs. If he is, that's the heaviest 34 lbs I've ever lifted!
