how does his breathing sound? If it was my lizard gaping, I would suspect a respiratory infection before anything else. Also, does he do this behavior all over the cage, or just on the basking site? It is common behavior for uromastyx to bask with their mouths open to let out excess heat. If he is only doing it under your vapor bulb, it could be that.have you heard him sneeze at all?
