Hello Chloe,

Well, it is not recommended to house females with a male on a permanent basis as too much stress incurs.  They are young so breeding can take a toll on them.  They are too young to breed right now though.  
I recommend getting fecals done on all 3 of them, as if one has worms or parasites, the other 2 will most likely have them as well.  
Chances are they are under some stress, perhaps from being housed with the male or they are too crowded, etc.  Stress will elevate their coccidia levels which can make them sick & induce weight loss.
What foods are you offering?  
What is your setup like?  Do you have UVB lighting?  If so, what type & brand?  A flourescent tube bulb or a compact or coil light?  
Are the temps optimal for them?  

Let me know how they are doing.
