Stick insects curl their tails primarily as a defensive mechanism. By curling their tails, they can mimic the appearance of twigs or other natural elements in their environment, helping them blend in and avoid predators. This behavior can also be a response to threats, allowing them to appear less vulnerable. Additionally, curling their tail can assist in grasping branches for stability while they remain still.

It seems as if your stick insect might have caught themselves on something that might be putting your Stick insect into alot of pain. Or they simply might have some kind of natural infection caught from food or another insect. The best thing you can do is to take your Stick Insect to a Vet that allows Stick Insects.
