Mine never got too angry at me, she was pretty well mannered. Whenever I opened her cage I'd gab a cricket and feed her as a peace offering and she actually seemed to warm up to the idea. Whenever I'd close my hand around her she would prep her tongue to a grab a cricket. She'd follow my hands and walk up onto my arm and after a while she was pretty tame. She rarely hissed at me and she would try and bite even less. That's my experience with my late cham, but it may help you out if you try some of the things.
