hi,
You need an amp that is stable and with a low noise figure.

Look at www.analog.com go thru their OPA collection, it depends upon the accuracy and stabilty your application requires.

What are you weighing, what resolution and accuracy do you need.?

hi,
It would be possible to use a standard PIC, with a 10bit ADC.
With an offset to give 500 thru 1500gm, you could weigh within +/-1gm.

They seem small chickens, are these live or dead [degutted] chickens.

We aim for 1500gm thru 2200gms, live weight.
