Blue Tongue not Eating

Ive had him since November, he's doubled in size since then.. he has a clean tank with deep substrate, a heat coil and a new uv light.. but he hasnt eaten in almost 2 weeks.

I know they are winding down for winter, but his tank is usually around 25 degrees without the heat coil (so I havent been using it)

He's even turned down live mealworms, snails and banana.

I cant force feed him because he doesnt move around during the day at all. In fact he hasnt moved for the last 3 days. When I picked him up, he was very cold

I have tried putting him in the sun for a few hours and let him wander between sun and shade, but even after that he doesnt want to eat.

What can I do? Is he ok? Does anyone need a picture to see if he's in good condition or not?
