Some benefits I might be able to think of is that you get to watch it grow, but thats going to take a while (as in years) for it to become an adult. Slings are going to also be cheaper than adults from reputable sources, but are still pretty expensive ever since Chile banned exports.

Any particular reason you want to handle? They don't have memory, so they can never get "used to" being handled. I don't recommend it, as they don't benefit from it, and there is always the risk of the handler being bit or haired, and the t falling.
