They can get bigger than that. I got a digital gram scale off of ebay that goes up to 2000g for a great price.
Edit: This is the one I got, although I certainly didn't pay this much:

This one also looks good:

Also there are 1000g ones, I sure don't think they get any bigger than that:

ALL YOUR BASE
Corns can grow to well over 1000g so make sure to get one that goes to at least 2000g (2 kilograms) I like the one at reptile basics that goes up to 7Kg:

Hahah, this is the same exact one I have. I actually am thinking about maybe getting another, smaller-scale one though. I find that it is actually very hard to get an exact weight within 4 grams for the little guys with this one, so yeah...

Really? I've never had a hard time with it, I can even measure my 1g pinks on it :shrugs:

Yeah, but then mine is also pretty old and has been used a lot, so that could be it.

I dropped mine and it still works :laugh01:

Yeah, see? Drop it about seven more times and see if it works as well. THEN you might approach the kind of abuse my poor weighing-thing has gone through. :rofl:
