"were the pinks live or f/t"

One f/t, one fresh killed

"also he needs a good hide"

He lives in a 9.75" deli cup (like all of my hatchlings, they each have their own)... With a cork flat for a hide.

"and don't handle him too soon after feeding"

I don't handle him at ALL. He lives in his deli cup, and is fed there. If he is handled, it is to clean the cup out. And even then, it is only long enough to transfer him to a different cup.

"are you using a feeding box or bag"

Like I said, I just leave him where he is. The problem is not a lack of feeding, it is the inability to keep down a day-old mouse pink.
