For him to keep biting and to move away from you this is due to he is used to one person feeding and holding him you are a stranger also if the previous owner has hurt him while feeding this can make him abit agressive or scared.

Dont rush him to come to your hand every 15-30 mins place your hand slowly in his cage everyday each time slowly getting close to him until your finger is pressed gently against his chest usually once they trust you baby birds will step onto you finger once this is accomplished you can then take him from the cage on your finger slowly.
If he fly's off never rush to him or try grabbing him always let him settle and go slowly to him he will soon learn your not going to harm him.
