Best hatchling gloves?
Just to eliminate the flinch factor to protect from dropping any hatchlings. I can only find super heavy duty glove, but am looking for lightweight ones. Also never been bit so gloves make me feel more confident/comfortable about handling.

I would recommend no gloves. Gloves could cause a tooth to get caught in the fabric. The bite of a hatchling is pretty week. Occasionally you may get a drop of blood.

My recommendation is just to let one bite you. You will quickly realize it's nothing to be concerned about.

A bite from hatching I less than a bee sting

I have not been bitten yet, but supposedly it is about on par with a mild papercut (I'm tempted to let Vince tag me, just so I can get that worry out of the way). :) Probably don't need gloves to handle the babies, even if they're feisty.

Practice by getting bit a lot, until you stop flinching!

Sounds like you want something along the lines of military dress gloves.

You don't need gloves man, just get in there and pick the things up... Of you could just give up this hobby and buy some kittens.... LOL .... Just kidding.... You can do this.....

Agreed don't worry about a hatchling bite. I've had worse bites from my Crested Geckos. It's really nothing at all.

Considering it does not contain venom I would hope there is no similarities.
