About how long ago did you move them to dif cages? I would expect some to not eat since it's a new envirement that they've never seen before. Here are a few things you can do.
1)Try getting some turkey baby food and putting it on their nose. They will lick it off.
2)You could also wait a few days and then introduce a couple of crickets.
3)Cut off the heads of some mealworms and put the guts on the geckos nose. Sometimes this reminds them that they are hungry and what the mealworms taste like so they start eating again.
Hope this helps!
