A few more follow ups.

Are they housed together?

When offering food have you tried covering the enclosure?

Have you temp gunned them to assure their temps?

I find that with any of the carpets that I have had come in that are slow to start feeding, they tend to be more secretive of snakes over all and need a bit more privacy. That was how I made the switch to feed at night and as soon as they take the food, I shut down lights. I also thaw my rodents and then warm them with water to 104 degrees and temp gun it. Remember they are not only vision enticed and scent enticed, but heat seekers as well.
