Just got all this in preparation still need uvb and some other stuff but I'm getting their!

You should get a feeder run and pour 10-15 bugs into it and walk away. That way he can eat in "privacy" in his own time....even if you're still watching from somewhere. He will feel more comfortable if you close his door and he can have his space. It is like you say, he is still getting used to you.

My year old male wont even accept more than 1 or 2 from me, so I normally only feed treats like hornworms from my hand or on a leaf. All the rest go into his feeder run I got from tkchameleons.com but you can also make your own for very cheap.
 
I mistyped. I use one from full throttle feeders, although the shooting gallery from tk chameleons is also absolutely wonderful.

Here is tk chameleons shooting gallery:

I was in the middle of building a feeder run cup and this dude just came over to the cup to investigate if I see him eat then awesome but I'm still gonna make the run cup
Awesome! Absolutely make it, and put some feeders into it, even if you still do some hand feeding at least he will have extra to eat when he feels
 
I moved the feeder run cup so it's easier to eat from and he has been rubbing his head on sticks and scratching his back he has also done something that looks like a t Rex roaring with no sound, def shedding.
