Hello--
I have an adult calking who won't take anything larger than a rat fuzzy, so I understand. Even though she's CB she's never been a fabulous eater. When I switched her to f/t, the difference in her taking/not taking the food item was the temperature. For the first several (dozen?) feedings, the food item needed to be very warm.

I'd put the warm f/t fuzzy mice in his paper bag as usual, making sure that he's really hungry as suggested. Best of luck with the process--kingsnakes rarely will starve themselves to death--not in their nature!

rgds,
althea
