If you need more help after reading this link, I am sure you will find many fine breeders here to help you out. Wearing gloves is fine. My daughter uses them with some of our bigger ball pythons for gripping. I think you will find handling them is very easy and you will learn quickly on how not to get bit. Once you get the ball out they will not just randomly bite you. If you are going to get bit it will be is soon as you disturb them.

Good Luck,
