I would probably try live if you can. If not make sure you're thawing it out completely maybe let it sit on top/near the enclosure for a while and see if he starts to come out looking for food then heat the head up with the blow dryer and try that. If he don't take it leave it in front of his hide for a while.

Try feeding in the evening/night when it's already dark. Good luck!
I got him a live hopper, going to try feeding him early tonight. He's sitting outside his cage and so far he hasn't even come out of his hide. Hopefully he comes out tonight and maybe he'll go for it. The mouse is barely 10 grams I'd say, but hopefully I can get him starting to eat. Otherwise I'm just gonna get 1.1 mice and freeze the excess for my corn snake.
