I've got a soft spot for anoles as I used to keep them as pets

You don't have to harm the anole, just rub the pinkie on him.

I know I don't have to hurt it. I got a WC king snake switched to FT mice by rubbing. BUT, at that time I also had pet anoles.
I don't have set up for them now, and the only "local" place that has them won't let me rub one of their anoles with a pinky. Should have seen the look on their face when I asked, LOL.
So that leaves me having to buy an anole that I can't take care of :[

Buy a frozen feeder anole?

I can't find any place that carries them. I'll probably have to bite the bullet, buy one and euthenize it.

Yeah, maybe. You could maybe try a frog if you knew anybody who had one as a pet.
