One year old corn snakes not eating?

I have four corn snakes that are 15 months old that I keep in a Boaphile rack. I feed them once a week and they eat like champs. For the first time, one of my females didn't eat last week. I didn't worry about it too much until this week. She didn't eat and the other female didn't eat either. The two males are eating like normal. The set up and temp have not changed, and I can't figure out why they are turning their noses up at mice all of a sudden.

I know they can go several weeks without eating, and I am just worrying for no reason, but I can't help it. Sauron's my favorite.

Does anyone else have any cornsnakes that go off their feed at this time of year? How long did it last? If she doesn't eat next week, I am going to go crazy. (ok, crazier.)
 
This is my first time with my snake going into the brumation season. I am not officially brumating him though. He is just a tad younger than yours but he is showing the same behavior. I have to wiggle the mouse in front of him to get his interest and I have been waiting longer days in between feedings. He also used to shed every six weeks on the nose, but it has been about eight weeks now since he has shed. I can tell he is still healthy, so I am not worried. I'm guessing it is him growing combined with the season change. Perhaps others with more experience will respond as well. My hatchling still eats on schedule.
