Others will have more insight I'm sure. I do think it really depends on the individual snake though. Like many, mine started on live but was switched to f/t at a young age.
What I was told was to warm the f/t to at least the normal body temp of a live mouse/rat or even higher (whatever live feeder you were using), and offer it right away. And to also make it appear as "alive" to the snake by wiggling it about. But, I'm sure you're familiar with this if you already feed your other snakes f/t
At one point when my snake was having trouble with f/t, I even put a tiny bit of chicken broth on the feeder, and that worked. Others will "brain" the f/t. In general, letting it thaw in the room with the snake also helps as well. I needed to do that with my snake at first to get him amped up into feeding mode.
But I guess it really just depends on how finicky the snake is, but the only way to know is to try.
