I'd love to help you out, but I need more info first. What conditions are you growing them in?
 
well,partial sun, 5 hours of direct sun the rest in dense shade,thier medium is lfs mixed with peat. they are in an undrained container, I water weekly, the temperatures are in the 90's. i belive this is a fungus, they arived to my house bare root so shipping could have caused stress.
 
Suggest you transplant into fresh medium with drainage, sounds like possible root rot.
 
Yeah, I agree with you Tamlin. I never use undrained containers for my plants, simply because it puts them at risk for root rot.
 
oh no, well i beter start making coffens, i transplanted them today, thank you for your help leapardgecko and talim.
 
No problem Santiago. I hope your plants pull out of their rut!
