Exactly what I was going to suggest.
You can also make a slurry and feed them that with a syringe. The slurry mix is very high in protein. It also has some acidophiliz, jump start and calcium mixed in it. The slurry should perk your dragons up and stimulate their appetite. I have seen it save dragons before and hopefully it can save your dragons as well.
1 lb. of chicken thighs or leg quarters with skin
1 tablespoon calcium powder
1/2 cup of superworms
3 teaspoons acidophiliz (supplement for digestion - can be made without it)
2 pinkies
1 teaspoon of jump start
Boil the chicken thighs or leg quarters for 20 minutes. Cut the meat and skin off the bone and cut them into small pieces and put into your blender or food processor in small sections (add about a 1/2 cup to a cup of cool water with each blending). Add the pinkies, superworms, calcium powder and acidophiliz. Now blend blend blend........
Add water until for a soupy consistency while blending, so it's not clumpy. Once finished it should have a creamy, smooth consistency. Pour into ice cube trays. Freeze one day in the ice cube trays and then transfer cubes into a freezer safe bag. Cubes should be good in freezer up to 3 months.
One defrosted ice cube of soup is the perfect serving for one dragon.
Draw the soup into a syringe and feed as much as they will take every 4-6 hours.
Good luck,
