both of the other suggestions are good and worth a shot.One other thing that I always do when converting a baby is to alway offer the live pinks with forceps, I believe they will get used to this offering and in the future accept the frozen/thawed easier when using the forcepts. This will allow you to give the thawed pinks some action. It is a good idea to have the thawed babies warmed up a bit. I thaw mine in a ziplock bag under warm water.
