Try washing your hands before handeling them if you've recently ate wash your hands with non scented soap if you can. It could be that he just forgot your scent try rubbing your hands on the nesting material you use if you use it. By doing that you rub your scent on the nest material so when the Hamster goes to it's "Hideout" it's in your scent. Hamsters have bad eye sight and use mostly the nose to sniff out its scent thats how the move about the cage or other places. Also the bad eye sight might be why it bit you, It can't see and it has not left his scent on your hands yet so it thinks your a enemy. My last 2 tips are don't use the "Claw Method" as it might think an bird is going to have it for dinner. The last thing is maybe stress is making it "un easy" if you have moved it or things in it's cage a lot recently could cause stress it's best to use those tips be safe, give it time, and remember these are live beings with their own will we can not force them to do something they dont want to do.
