Don't offer them any food for the next 2 days. Don't mess with them - no touching, playing - don't look them in the eye - no nuttin, no-how. I have a feeling you might be worrying them to death by your concern. You'rre throwing bad vibes . . . LOL

After 2 days - offer them just a FEW prey items in a dish. Live mealies or crickets - but not too many - don't overwhelm them. If you have a cricket, pinch off one of their back legs, so that can't hop so much.

It's like fishing a hot spot - sometimes you have to let it rest for awhile, then come back and shake it until they can't take it!!!

Unless they are ill or you are doing something very wacky with their environment, they will eat. I guarantee it.
