Hi,
You might want to try giving the smaller one a soak in some warm water, this will give it a chance to drink, and will probably feel good on its tail. Be very careful not to use too much water, as uros can inhale the water and die. You can also try wetting down its food to make sure it has enough water, and offering treats, such as bee pollen, fruit or prickly pear cactus, with normal food to stimulate your uro to eat. I'm not sure about the other one not moving around. Right now - as it's snowing and cold (but same temps in their cage - 5deg) my uros aren't as active as they are in the summer, due to brumation. Yours might be slowing down due to winter..or he may normally act like this unless he is chasing the other one. Never know. Oh, by the way, are both of them males? I have a male with a female mali and they get along great. Males can't be kept together, so check that. Hope this helps  ----- ~Sarah
