a sub adult should be eating much larger than a pinkie. Is it rat pinky or mouse pinky?
I assume you are heating it up a lot and offering at night?
Does she show any interest in it at all, what is her reaction when you offer?
Are there any other issues going on, bad shed or in blue? Some ATBs won't eat when they are having bad shed issues (although some will anyways).

If she's too small to eat anything larger, then I suggest a live one since it won't be able to do any damage to her anyways.

Is she a wild caught, ever been checked for parasites?

I've been keeping ATBs since 2001 and have over 10 right now, they are generally all very active and happy to eat. Even when having issues. So that is why I think there must be something else going on, possibly parasites. I hope she starts eating for you.
