Need advice re: Ahaetulla nasuta not wanting to eat

I have a young long-nosed Asian vine snake, have had it @ 3 months. At first, she (guessing here on gender!) hunted down and immediately ate an anole. However, in the past month or so, she has eaten only twice. I tried keeping the anole in with her, and I swear - she made a pet of it!! They were actually basking side-by-side!
I know it's better for her health to get her onto rodents due to parasite issues in anoles. But she will have NOTHING to do with rodents. So I don't know what to do! I have read that they eat frequently, and she sure hasn't been like that. Weekly at the best times, and worse as time has passed. She gets restless periods, going around pressing her nose hard against the glass. Her cage is well-planted with live plants.
Any insights will be appreciated!

Reptilinks makes anole scent. I'd try using it on the mouse pinkies. I used the frog scent to get a young hognose onto pinkies.
