I know with toads you can rub the pinkie all over the toad's body and let the toad bite the pinkie, getting its saliva on it. Not sure if this would work as well for anoles but the suggestion about getting yourself a toad and keeping it as a pet who does double duty by scenting pinks is a good one. People have also posted about liquifying their chosen scenting animal and dipping the pinkie in the juice, but, I don't know, that wouldn't be for me. Also if you tough it out the snake will eventually eat mice and the less you do to 'trick' it into eating them, the better and more consistently the snake should feed on unscented. I would say that once a hog goes to unscented, never let it go back. It'll eat eventually....snakes take a long time to starve and they aren't too dumb to eventually take the food. (most of the time anyway)
