I had a very similar problem with my baby burm. It would take the rat pups i would introduce to him. It wasnt interested at all. Well i raised the temp a bit and kept him humid, and i began to see more activity. I also switched him over to a small hopper mouse which caught his attention instantly. He plowed that sucker down and eats pretty regularly now. I would say try a small mouse that can actually move. I know ppl always want dead prey but in my case mine only eats whats live for now.
