Answer
Jory,
   The first step is to take him back to the pet store and see what they were doing to get him to eat. Try rats instead of mice or mice instead of rats. Try a baby hamster or gerbil. Try live instead of frozen. Also, check your husbandry to make sure his living conditions are correct. If he still wont eat, take him to the vet.
