4 "dominant horns"? This is probably something other than a Rountail, but pictures would help since the layperson giving a description of the horn arrangement usually doesn't suffice for an ID. You probably have a platyrhinos if it was bought at a pet store.

He is dehydrated though if his eyes are sunken. And that level of dehydration is dangerous. Keep up the hydration and give filtered, warm water to soak in, and lukewarm filtered water for misting. Stay away from mealworms or anything other than ants or very small crickets, at least until he is rehydrated. Impaction can result from dehydration.
