Hi Ann. To be honest I dont remember how long it took. The robin is always close by when I'm in the garden hoping I'm going to disturb some tasty treats. I think I started by just offering my outstretched hand with a couple of mealworms in. I did look away at the start and kept very still. My arm would start to ache🤣 so I would put the worm down on a branch or something between the Robin and me and stay to watch him take it. Eventually he wouldn't wait for me to put the worm down but take it straight from my hand. It is a glorious feeling and well worth the patience. It a good time now as if they have chicks they are keener to get their share 🤣Good luck. Oh the other thing I tried was to offer a little tub of the mealworm too and the Robin would perch in the side to take them. Maybe this is a good first step.
