The warming thing is a good practice.
Keep in mind that most snakes react to live prey better than alternatives. But, like the others stated, Cal kings happen to be very accepting of just about anything mouse.
Also, older males will eat alot less food than younger, growing snakes. Older males just do not need as much food to exist. I've had adult male milksnakes that would only eat young mice unless the adult mice were live or freshly stunned.
So, just try the F/T fuzzies. I think he'll accept them just fine. Then you can try weanlings.
