Default Handling of a gecko

Do you think a wild caught gecko will ever be comfortable being handled? There are days Henry will climb onto my finger, but it isn't because he wants too, he's trying to get away from the crazy hand that's taking stuff out of his tank. He'll climb around for a while, but once I put his log back in- he's outta there!

It's ok, I guess, if he never gets used to us holding him.... but it would be neat if he did.
