New Quaker Need some advice on biting

I got a Quaker Friday morning and we are trying him around my 2 daughters for the week. The woman that is trying to find a home said if it didnt work out with him and my children to bring him back. Its been ok the last 2 days he lets them hold him but doesnt want them to pet him while they are holding him so thats when he bites. He already has my heart tho!

Not sure if he is testing us or what to do exactly. Any suggestions would be great. He is a sweetie tho he loves to give kisses and he says Boris no bite and sometimes he laughs after he bites.

Im also new to forums so not sure if Im doing this like Im supposed to.

Oh and I forgot to say I read on of the other posts about the Dowel sticks I tried getting him to step up out of his cage with a branch he is so so so scared of it he starts shaking and screeching and hides in the back corner of his cage.
