Re: New guy hasn't eaten yet...
I would stick with offering him f/t if it were me or what ever you intend to feed. I wouldn't muck around with offering live at first if you don't intend to feed live permanently it could be tricky to switch them later.
As long as the snake is in good health it's not going to starve itself, at least I don't imagine it would. Also, sometimes a change of environment can make them a little more nervous. When I moved houses a couple of my snakes went off feed and another had a shedding nightmare.
Good luck
