How long have you had them and has anything changed in that time?
Do you manually check the temps in the vivs are correct? (ie. with a thermometer to make sure your stat is still working correctly) have you moved the vivs? or made any drastic changes in them?
are they being handled very regularly or for long periods of time? (although that's more of a stressy Royal thing really)
have you changed where you get the mice from? mine all seem to know when i move to the next batch and some take a little longer to show any interest. are the size of mouse appropriate for the size of the snake?

ok, that's enough of the Spanish Inquisition for now!!
BTW heya and welcome
