Hi, first let me say I have never had a curly tail. I do however have many other lizards species. This is the time many will begin to slow down and or begin to brumate. I would like to ask if your temps have dropped in the tanks ? If so raising or getting your temps back up could bring them out. But it could just be normal for this time of year :0)

I do know they are suppose to have a fairly high basking area of 85 to 90 is this about where you have their basking spot? Also their night time temps are in the higher 70's maybe your house temps have gotten cooler in the past few weeks and they have started to brumate. I would only check them every week and offer a few drops of water on their snouts if they will not drink for a dropper. Only be concerned if they appear to be losing weight or appear sickly in any way/ respiratory problems/

Check your temps , and let us know
