Please give us a bit more info like size cage, temps, heating method, humidity, where you got the lizard, etc.

Have you tried any other type of food? Have you had him checked for worms?

Check the links I just posted. I'm thinking temp is a bit high and humidy a bit low. If he's 15" a 10 gallon is a bit small too.

He's a diurnal lizard, he's going to need UVB lighting.

Fecals are cheap, he's likely wormy.
