Angel Alvarado, LVT · Accepted Answer

He may be stressed, angry or the temperature and/or humidity may need to be adjusted in his enclosure. Check environmental parameters and search the area around his cage for any negative stimuli. Monitor for lethargy, loss of appetite or any discharge from the nose or mouth. "Gaping" can be a symptom of developing respiratory infection which needs immediate veterinary attention.
