Default What's your taming technique?

Again for interest/fun/knowledge sharing - what's your favourite taming method or methods? How long do you really leave them to settle in? Etc

I'm sure we've all read the same literature on what works best blah blah but there's nothing like hearing from actual people who have had a range of experiences and hammie personalities to deal with!

So interested to hear what you do! Same approach for all or different approaches between pet shop, rescues and breeders?
Your usual treats ?
Leave hand in cage?
Work from outside at the bars first?
Take hammie in a box to the sofa to start there?

And what's the most ridiculous lengths you've gone to or funniest thing you've tried - now when you look back?

And come on we've all at some point messed up no matter how hard we want to do the right thing - what's your worst taming horror story?
