It sounds like stress to me. I know youve had him for four months now, but thats what it seems like when he drops his tail like that. I would suggest that you drop the temp and night with misting sessions twice daily. You may even need to start force feeding crickets dipped in calcium with the head cut off. (it sounds a bit off i know but the antenna irritates there face and eyes when the body is rubbed against there mouth)..I would aslo put him in somthing smaller so you can keep a better eye on him. I had a somewhat similar case, and was able to pull my female out of it...it took about a 3-4 weeks i would except the same if not longer for yours



GOOD LUCK =)
