You may have PMV or salmonella. Separate him ASAP. Keep him warm. Check his poop and see if there is any smell. What are his poops like? Check his crop, his mouth any smell liaisons, anything else that may help diagnosing this bird? Do you have any medications?

You will also need to hand feed the bird if he has stopped eating, because they can die from starvation before they actually die from the disease they are suffering from.
