NEW BABY, I NEED HELP

HI, I just got a new baby veiled chameleon, named Pastel. After doing 5 months of constant research, and lots of planning, I finally made the paradise for my baby cham. However, I seem to be stressing myself out too much. I have had my chameleon for a little over a week, and he isn't eating as much as he should be eating. I am feeding him the correct amount, however he doesn't want to eat. I have tried the wax worms trick, it worked for the first day, but after that it didn't do anything. Pastel is not a feisty cham.... yet.... hopefully never..... and i have gotten him to willingly climb on my hand, while he was still in the cage, this miraculous event only lasted a few seconds, but it was progress. so if anyone has any tips, i would love to hear

It's very normal for a cham to not eat when you first being him home. So five it a week or two. He will be fine. Also it will help if you add a umbrella tree or or something similar to make the cham feel less stressed.
