It potentially could be the natural internal clock that garters have that tells them its time to brumate. The other possibilities would be to triple check your husbandry, temperatures, etc. Look for signs of illness and or injuries also. Good luck..

. Certainly if the reptile is wild caught and has recently been subjected to captivity his internal clock can be offset by the stress. If he's a male and is sensing it's time to breed will also throw off his feeding response. Consider feeding pinky rats over fuzzies bc of the fur on the fuzzies. Hairless hoppers would be the other choice in rodents.
