What tricks have you tried? Baby Trinkets can sometimes be tough to start though the fact that he did feed one time suggests it could be some environmental variable. Are you keeping them warm enough (low to mid 80S), humid enough (trinkets like humidity)? Braining usually works well with Trinkets and if this doesn't work, they usually assist feed easily (put the pinkie's head in its mouth). How long since he last fed? A little more info would be helpful.
