It should not bee too hard to switch him over. I caught my California King as an adult as well, and he readily accepted the F/T mice the first time I offered them.

Kingsnakes in general are good eaters; there are some, however, that will not accept anything but live foods. My suggestion is to make your snake wait a few weeks after his last live meal so that he is extra hungry when you go to feed him the F/T mice. If he doesn't take them immediately, you might try braining them.
