To feed or not to feed

Question
I have been asking you about brumation; I have two bearded dragons both seem to be going through brumation. So my final question, if neither have gone "potty" in over a week do I still try to feed them? I know by doing so I risk a bacteria growing inside of them, but at the same time I don't want them to starve. I don't mean to bug, but this is a scary thing to go through, brumation, especially when you know so little on the topic.
Thank you

Answer
Brumation is always scary the first time around.  I was nuts for the first two brumations so I understand!  I leave a nice salad everyday in case they feel like eating. I give water to the hard sleepers with a dropper every three weeks.  Other than that, their metabolisms are so slow that you'll find they don't even lose much weight.
