Without knowing how you are keeping them, what you cleaned their enclosure with or pictures, no one here can help you. Many will try, and your head will explode with all the theories and postulations as to what may be wrong.
In the meantime, YOU need to do the following:
(1) Check the caresheet on this website against your husbandry parameters (basking temp, ambient temp, cool side temp). If they do not match up, correct them immediately.
(2) If you are keeping any of these snakes together stop doing so immediately. Buy individual set ups and maintain the animals separately. Cohabitating must be performed correctly. If you are indeed keeping any of them together, you maybe under the false impression that you are saving money or time in doing so. If you are truly cohabitating them correctly, you are not.
(3) You have apparently brought two new snakes into your home without quarantining them - correct? If the new female is sick, you have put your established animal at risk. Read up on proper quarantine procedures and begin implementing them immediately.
(4) You mentioned you cleaned up the enclosure. After you have seen to the potential husbandry issues, please clarify exactly what this cleaning procedure entailed.
(5) See a vet and have both new animals checked. In the absence of doing that, all you are going to get is a bunch of arm chair quarterbacks making WAGs and giving you confusing advice.
(6) You stated that you had the animals a week yet this was the third time you have had them out. New acquisitions need time to acclimate. Letting them be for at least a week is a good initial acclimation period. After you have corrected any husbandry parameters, leave these animals alone for at least a week.
(7) Do not respond to this post or any others until you make sure you husbandry skills are up to snuff and can tell us exactly how the snake is being kept - down to how you are measuring those parameters. Your first concern should be affirming that you are keeping these animals correctly. The new arrivals need to be moved away from your existing snake and each snake needs it's own enclosure at this point.
