How to tame a pet that bites and hides? Can hand-feeding help?

Question

you just reached out to me about Leo but he won’t even try to go on my arm he will just bite me and hide. Also by treats do you mean food. I heard that hand feeding is a good way of taming should I try that? Pet's info: Reptile | Chameleon | Male | neutered

Thanks for reaching out about Leo. De-sensitizaiton is the key. Trying to get him to climb onto your, encouraging with treats. Keep all movements slow, interaction times should start short. Good luck.
