could you describe in more detail what his diet is like?
What and in what amounts he eats daily?
Does he get time out of cage?.. could has he gotten into something toxic?
Are there house plants?... if yes, which ones?... could he have gotten into them?
Do you have cats?... if yes, could he accidentally have gotten into some cat's toys or some other cat's stuff?
The day and hours preceding his falling ill, was he going through his usual daily routine (his usual games, habits, food etc) or was there something new?
If you could provide as much info as posssible, it would help to identify the possible issue.
Another thing: you mentioned his symptoms. Could you describe them in detail?...
When did they start? Did they start out of nowhere or gradually?

Keeping liquids going the very important.
Seems you have that part under control.
If you have a digital scale, try to get a weight.
