If I were you I'd handle him as much as possible after he defecates his last meal. Get him used to you and then you can try feeding a frozen thawed pinky with a tong or long tweezer. If he sticks out his tongue and follows the pinky chances are he will strike at it. Some recommend bumping a hatchling in the nose with the pinky and that works some of the time, but you don't want him scared and slithering away from the pinky. The first thing I try is putting a hatchling in a deli cup with a pinky in a dark place, and that works some of the time too.
