Try fresh-killed prey at first. If it takes the freshly killed prey its a very good step forward.
F/T might be too strange at first to a snake that has been feeding live for 5 years so it might only take live. It all depends on the snake.

Also, did you just get this snake? If so, give it some time to chill out for a couple of weeks before trying to feed it. If your setup is good, it will feed on something eventually.

BTW: feeding live isnt a bad thing (its natural and its what your snake knows). Just keep an eye out for problems with live prey and you should be good.

Good luck!
