    He will chill out with time. Give him a few days then start handling him daily. Also don't be scared to handle him, just reach in and ick him up. It's when you stall they get acting weird, or atlest in my case I've seen with my guys & girl.

    I wouldnt go with the glove thing. He needs to get used to your scent. If he gets used to the scent of the glove then when you stop using them he wont be used to you.
