Anorexic Corn

Hi, this is a bit of a follow on from my last thread, 'Houdini Corn'.
I adopted a Corn snake off a friend because he didnt have the time or money to spend on him, when i had the corn' Zep' he was in a bad way with an R.I, but managed to escape within 24 hours of me having him.
Since then he's returned, ive taken him the vets and they say he's seriously underweight, he hadnt eaten for 2 months previous to me having him, and was missing for 2 months, so around 4 months in total of not eating, since then ive give Zep a course of injections off the vet, and bought a brand new heat lamp for his viv. Yesterday he started to feed again, which is obviously a really good sign! But with him been so underweight, the vet called him 'anorexic', it really is that bad, i was wondering if there is anything else i could be feeding him except F/T mice? sorry for the huge explanation, i suppose the simple question is, what varieties of things can i fed my Corns, and what is (if anything) better than F/T mice? thanks, matt
p.s With him not eating for so long, ive started him back off on 4 pinkies every other day, he is a 4 foot corn, but i didnt want to over do it
