Re: internal parasites?
Well, being it's winter and he's a bigger male, I'd think he is just fasting because it's breeding season.
If you're worried, I would get him in a 32qt tub, get the heat bumped up to 95/85(warm side/cool side, 24/7 heat) and up the humidity, and hopefully he'll snap out of it.
What are you trying to feed and how often? If it's f/t, maybe he's just bored of it and needs some movement to stimulate his appetite. Maybe a live mouse or live rat pup would help.

Re: internal parasites?
I've only offered him live food as that is whats available to me. His temps are where they should be and he is in a no traffic area at the moment. He shows interest in the mouse, flicking his tongue at it and looking in its general direction, but then he just loses interest I guess and disappears into one of his hides. Im worried because he has lost weight since I've gotten him and that cant be a good thing. I have checked for external parasites but he's clean so the only other thing is internal parasites.
