How old are they? how big are they? what have they been eating? we need a bit more info dude!
But it might just not be eating due to the colder months, just warm it up and try once a week with food.
But with the more info, you should get some great help here from someone.

Has there been any change to it's environment at all? Don't get too stressed though, 6 weeks isn't too big a deal. But I'm sure there are a lot of people here who will be more than willing to help

i was just thinking, before you feed the other one a fuzzy try offering the one that wont eat first. if it takes it great, if it doesn't then thats fine cos u won't have lost any food. just thought it was strange thats all cos mine are a few months younger then yours and they haven't seen a pinkie for god knows how long.
everyone has different ways of feeding though, i personally just like to get them on to better things then pinkies asap

redline my spotted went off food for 5 months but she is way older then yours i just got her feeding again. try a hopper that might trigger him/her to eat. i notice that with my diamond i just got her switched from live to dead and i figured out she would take a dead medium adult but anything smaller she won't take. maybe a bigger meal might make him/her take it if it won't take the dead or f/t you could try live if you wanted too. you could also raise the temps too 33 to 34 degrees celsicus that also might make him/her too eat.

you would be amazed what a snake can eat my diamond is only 2ft and already eatting medium adults my spotted is 2ft 2inches and she eats small mice. try a mouse that has there eyes opened and walking around some pythons like movement.

how big is your cage?if i got a snake that isnt eating i put them in a small cage with live food. the movement seems to help and with the cage being so small the snake cant just go and hide in the corner.
