I'm sorry to hear Ricky isn't feeling well! Unfortunately, without an exam it would be hard to tell what is causing him to be ill, as his symptoms are very vague and can be a number of things including injuries, illness or even neurologic/nutritional issues. it would be best to try and seek the care of a veterinarian or avian vet in your area to see if they could examine him and figure out what is wrong. If he is housed with other birds, moving him to a hospital cage that is isolated and making sure he is kept warm with access to plenty of food and water may help until you can be seen by a vet.
