their skin is not as delicate as most people try to make it sound. it will only tear on a sharp or really rough object.
the tokay's bite isn't all that bad ( just breaks the skin a little bit) but sometimes when they bit they'll hold on for 15 minutes or longer ( i had one stuck on my hooded sweatshirt one day for about 45 minutes)
i just go up behind them and grab them behind their head and support the rest of their body. other option is to put on some gloves and just grab it out of the cage that way.
