We raise hair sheep and we love the scale as being a digital that reads very accurate. You can drill a small hole in the handle and put a link or S hook on it.

This scale has been a God send. It is very accurate

Works well. Appreciate the small size and appears to be very accurate. Nice for small lambs that need to be weighed in ounces.
Lyman H from Texas
The scale is accurate but it must be held in your hand. It cannot be hung from a hook because of the way the handle is formed. The very first time I used it the battery compartment cover and one of the two batteries fell off and onto the straw covered floor of the pen. I found the cover but the one battery is still missing. If you decide to buy one plan on putting a piece of tape over the battery cover.

This is a good scale, but know that it is not water proof.
We lamb on pasture so we have to be prepared for all kinds of weather. Unfortunately, a downpour came in and filled the work bucket I have all my lambing equipment in, and scale got soaked.
I would advise those that buy this to wrap it in a zip-lock bag and seal it with some duck tape, or the very least have a zip-lock bag to put it in after use if working in the elements.
