Help with King Snake and loss of appetite

Hello,
I have a 2 year old California King snake, captive bred and always fed dead (frozen) mice. I have had him for about 3 months now, and he started out eating every 5-10 days, on a fairly regular basis. Lately he is reluctant to eat, and at the moment has gone 19 days without feeding. I am getting worried! How long is too long?

He has water, temp gradient of 75-85, and I offer him a warmed mouse every day. He retreats, and acts almost scared of it, when at first he attacked them with no hesitation.

Any advice appreciated!
