A bit back I did the EXACT same thing with my male ball, he was 7months same as yours. I gave up on him but a few tricks that normally work according to forums and what not are these:
Try feeding a small mouse and then sliding the head of the thawed in while he's finishing the other
The other trick I'd heard worked for my friend, dip the thawed mouse/rat in chicken broth...Dunno why it works but it did for him, he did it the first 3 times his snake ate for him and then no longer needed to...hope this helps a bit
