Thanks for the advice. It really is a beautiful snake. Very active and doesn't seem to mind handling.
Before I got your reply I went out and bought a few PetCo frozen pinkies. After thawing it to room temperature he didn't want to have any thing to do with it.
Today I went to a local (reptile friendly) pet store and all they had were full grown mice and large (almost fuzzy) pinkies. I bought one and placed it in the cage. The snake (named Rocky by my son) investigated the live pinkie thoroughly and then has since ignored it. It’s now been a couple of hours.

He was caught early Friday night, so I know he hasn't eaten since then. I'm a bit worried.

Dave
