I moved your thread to the venomous discussion forum.
If you're not a fan of pre killed mice, why do you want to get your copperhead(s) on them?
I've only worked with a handful of copperheads, but I never had any difficulty getting them to take f/t. Heating the prey is probably a good idea in the beginning (take advantage of those thermoreceptors), but once they're established, it doesn't matter a while lot.
I don't remember offhand if any would eat f/t off the floor of their enclosure...they usually grabbed them off the tongs quickly enough that I didn't have to think about dropping the prey.
