what kind of scale do you guys use to weigh your torts? I would like to monitor their growth on a monthly basis.

For babies you can use a postal scale.

The cheap, digital scale that I used for babies was under $10 from Walmart. For weighing things for cooking.
Check the range and make sure that it is large enough that you can use it as your tort grows.
Some scales start or stop at a certain weight.

Yeah I ordered a digital scale that weighs in grams, lbs, ounces and milliliters and weighs up to 11 lbs. that should last me a very long time.
