Warm him up. Check your tank temps (ambient and basking). Low temps will affect activity and appetite. Use a timer to set a 12 hour light cycle. An infrared heat bulb can be used at night if room temp goes below 70F. See an experienced herp vet for an exam to diagnose illness or injury if symptoms persist.
