Robins rarely come to feeders. But there is a bluebird feeder on the market that holds mealworms for bluebirds. That might work, since both birds are thrushes and have a similar diet.

How do you get rid of large numbers of nuisance starlings while still keeping song birds?
Solutions for getting rid of Starlings by providing a variety of feeders that they cannot feed from, but other birds can utilize: 1. Use a nyjer or thistle tube feeder, which is a specially designed feeder with tiny feeding ports for this very small seed. Starlings prefer other seed and find tube feeders difficult to manage easily. This type of feeder, depending on where you live, will attract small birds such as American Goldfinch, House Finch, and Chickadee. 2. Use tube feeders designed to hold mixed seed such as sunflower seed, shelled peanut or white millet etc. If you find the Starlings are still able to use the perches to access the seed, cut the perches a little shorter until they are unable to sit on them. This will not hinder the smaller birds. 3. Use peanut in the shell feeders which have bars or mesh with large holes to hold the food. Starlings find it very difficult to use this style. 4. Use an upside-down suet feeder that will attract clinging birds such as Woodpeckers, Nuthatches and Chickadees, but not Starlings who are unable to hold on. 5. Use safflower only in a hopper type bird feeder as Starlings are not usually attracted to this seed, but Cardinals are attracted by it. For more info visit the-scoop-on-wild-birds-and-feeders.com

A problem for many back yard bird feeders. Most people use thin sheet metal around the post the feeder is attached to so the squirrel has no way to grip the post and climb up. If the feeder is hanging then a wide metal "cap" over it will not bother the birds but will stop the squirrel from jumping onto the feeder from above.
