Thanks for the encouragment Jerry, all the advice I have been getting in this forum has been very helpful. I could not find a source for baby or even adult fence lizards to purchase locally or through businesses on kingnsake.com so I tried a sceloporus malachitus for scenting. It didn't work. Maybe the "real deal" of a fence lizard would, if you can provide one it would be appreciated.
If not I will continue offering pinkies in a variety of ways and force feeding mouse tails if she won't take them. It sounds like you suggest brumating her in November after she has a few meals in her for a few months in the hope she will eat better after she warms up.
