First off, the "summer brumating" post below may be on to something. I don't do the whole night time drops in temp, but there is a gradient and the cool end of the cage is in the low to mid 70s. Make sure your cage is set up properly. Though my breeding experience with blue tongues is limited, I have had a very few that lived together. You do run the risk of one no longer "appreciating" the other's presence which can lead to bad injuries. I now keep all mine separate. Better safe then sorry. The only reports of blue tongues living in close proximity are with T. rugosus.

If they were mine, I would create a better gradient and allow them to have access to cooler temps than 85 degrees. Also, I would separate them. Offer something different to stimulate the appetite. I have had success with baby mice or just pouring apricot baby food on their normal food. Check your husbandry situation and make sure the essentials are taken care of: Heat gradient, humidity, cleanliness, etc. If that checks out and they are not eating, take them to a vet since other issues may be present that you cannot see or remedy on your own. Hope this helps.
