It sound like a RI, he need to see a vet.

sounds like your heat isnt high enough. you need to raise his temperatures!
ambient of 80 degrees, bask of 130 +
Lots of hydration for an RI!

Incase you dont know what RI is its short for respireatory infection and can be very deadly if not dealt with.

Yup, thats what it sounds like, and possibly mouthrot, take a look in his mouth and if there is a cheasy like matter then there is probably mouth rot too. Vet.
