You are still a stranger to your new cham. Most chams take a couple of weeks to a month to settle into a new home. Give him time, keep your activity around his cage to some sort of routine (chams hate change and unpredictability), make sure he has a lot of places to hide from view, and then start hand feeding.

You're the size of godzilla compared to the little guy! Understandable that the face, with a mouth big enough to eat him, would be intimidating.

Just be patient, let him get used to you and grow, and over time he will be less frightened of you. Just takes time.
