Thanks for all the responses everyone! I wish i could try feeding him now and not waiting another week, i'm excited to see what happens!
An hour of just plain air-thawing doesn't sound like enough. Make sure to feel the mouse through for any cold points inside. I suggest running it under hot water for about 20-30 minutes to get it pretty well thawed.

Once he grabs the mouse, just leave and turn off the lights. If he doesn't grab, leave it in front of the hide and come back in about an hour or so.
