Black Roughneck Not Eating.....

I am having trouble with a recently imported black roughneck. I have offered insects (crix, mealworms, waxworms, silkworms)as well as pre-killed rodents, and he has been forcefed twice. He appears to be in good health and parasite free in that he is fairly active, but he is losing weight. Tempature and humidity are good. Are there any procedures or foods I could give him to spark his apetite?

Any help at all would be great!

Thanks,
Pat C
