I find some leos love them, some don't even want to be in the same room as the butterworms. Maybe yours just don't like them.
If the worms are small enough for the leos and they don't eat them, chances are they probably won't. You could try again in a few weeks, see if they've changed their minds.

LOL I had 16 at one time and all would eat them. But I have 3 new geckos and I know they eat waxworms, butters are next round to the petstore LOL Man I need to remember to NOT hand feed my original 4 geckos, they forget my fingers are in there too sometimes LOL its laughable but stiff freaks you out when they look so nuts excited and are looking at my fingers LOL even if it doesnt hurt a bit when they catch a bit of my finger

Butterworms have a "sweet" smell to them and i find that either attracts some of my leos or puts some of them off.
