Help with feeding new Ball Python!!

Hi there, we just bought our 1st ball python. She is 2 months old and has only been fed mouse hoppers. Where we live, we can't find anyone who sells them, so we have been trying to feed her frozen fuzzies, but she will not eat anything. It's been 3 weeks and we are getting nervous as to why she is not eating anything. We were told to not feed her in her habitat but what about the temperatures if we take her out to feed her in a separate box? We are getting all kinds of suggestions on how to feed her, but so far nothing is working. How do you know when it's time to 'force feed' - we don't even want to have to do that. She doesn't look sick or anything, but we were also told to not handle her as much until she does feed. Is that right? Any other ideas , we would greatly appreciate it. We love her and want her to feel safe and happy. She looks like she loves her home. But perhaps it's about timing too - how late do you try to feed and for how long? We really want her to switch to frozen, but how is the question. Thanks!!
