At 418g, he's way too big for a rat pink and it's possible he refused it because it was so small. I know my bps will do that if they prey is too big or too small. Have you thought to try a live rat pup or just weaned rat? That could get his attention and should elicit a feeding response.
We only used a rat pink to try to stimulate him to eat with something live, and I didn't want to offer anything with teeth just yet because he seems so afraid of his prey. We've been offering appropriately sized f/t small rats aside from this recent attempt.

We've contacted the breeder, and they're gonig to get back to us sometime later today hopefully. I'm pretty sure that he was eating sometimes live and sometimes f/t large adult mice, but we definitely want to double check that in case we're going in the wrong direction.
