Have your vet check for Cryptosporidium. In the meantime, make sure you move his cage and furnishings into a room away from the rest of your collection and disinfect everything with a Quaternary Ammonia solution. If Crypto is present (the symptoms you descride are indicative of Crypto), Clorine Bleach and Nolvasan and that sort of thing will NOT eliminate it. Ammonia is the only thing that will. Do not use household ammonia. You need a preparation such a Roccal-D.
