This can be indicative of a multitude of illnesses so if you are concered about abnormal behavior you should take him to the vet. Make sure his water bottle is working as it can mean dehydration and ensure he is not in the sun and overheated.
How old is he now? As they age they do get more sleepy and docile. Hope he is OK.
