Perhaps part of the cause is that they would like to and are trying to brumate, I would guess/bet these problems will go away this spring and summer. Air humidity is difficult to get a presise and acurate measurement, your humidity might be lower than you think indoors in the wintertime, regardless of what your gauge is telling you with the E and p readings, so increasing the humidity like Steph suggests will likely be helpful, you may even need to partially cover the enclosure to really increase humidity in the air, increased misting or increased moisture of the substate may not be enough to effectively increase the humidity of the air in the entire room. The humidity will naturally go up in summer as well as their desire to go to sleep will go away.
