Question

Answer
Hello Sammy,

First off, since one is sick you need to separate that one from your other one.
What type of substrate are you using?  What other foods are you feeding?  
What type & brand of UVB light are you using, a flourescent tube bulb or a compact or coil light?
What type of basking light are you using, a bright white one or a colored light?
Did he throw up?  
What are your temps & what do you measuring them with?  

Let me know how he is doing.
