Sounds like a pair to me! Males will harass the female all day long. They are always mating. I have them wild in my yard. If you have a male, he will get real low to the ground and circle the female, or head bob to another male. I do think your lizards are responding to the natural light cycle, maybe by sensing the humidity change or something. Here in south Fla, they do not brumate, but they will lay low for weeks, and they do get underground just like you are seeing. They can get pretty chunky when well fed, so you should be able to tell if they are needing to eat. If they aren’t, they might not for a while. They are very personable lizards that learn to feed from your hand even in the wild. They seem to be long term residents of their favorite spots. I really like them, post some pictures!
