The yellow discoloration indicates jaundice and he needs a full assessment by a vet and blood tests in order to determine the underlying cause - these may include liver damage, toxin exposure, anemia due to breakdown of red blood cells.

Neither eggs nor fish should be regularly fed raw as both can lead to nutritional deficiencies due to breakdown and poor absorption of vitamins
