Yeah at first I thought it's probably just yawning, but after seeing the video I have to say, that is definately not normal. It could be respitory problem, just not sure. what temperature is it in the room you keep him in? Or in that cage? You said it is eating so that is a good sign. I would raise his temps up to around 82 to 85 but please make sure you do it safely if you heat him up too much you will kill him. If he continues to do this you will have to take him to a Vet if you don't want him to die. You should also look into getting him a better cage. Even a Large Rubbermaid sweater box that closes tight or better yet has latches with holes drilled or melted on the sides will be better than that critter carrier. They aren't expensive and will give him more room. You can always get a better looking cage later on. Give him a warm side and a cooler side if at all posiible. If you have Air Conditioning in that room you may want to move him to a laundry room or even Garage as long as mid day temps don't go above 87 there bouts. If it climbs into even the low 90's he'll fry. Sometimes if you catch it early on just raising the temps can cure it but like I said if it continues more than a few days, you are risking it's life. Good luck!
