Are they in shade? They like moist and shady conditions.

Are they Japanese Painted Ferns? If so, the ones in my greenhouse are up and looking beautiful, but hte ones in my garden are only just starting to come up. I wonder, did you buy them 'in leaf' from a garden centre and plant them out this spring? If so, then might have got a bit too cold for them. If this is the case they should bounce back once conditions improve for them,
