Cody's not eaten for 2 days

woke up on Monday morning (its weds now) to find a couple of piles of sick on the floor,and the house smelt really badly of poo, but i couldn't find any around , so am thinking he must've had really bad wind..
i left him withh access to the garden all day whilst i was at work, and he'd done a couple more runny poos by the time i got back. I put food donw for him but knew he wouldn't touch it...which he didn't

Later that evening i made him some scrambled egg, just in case he was hungry. he turned his nose up at that ,so left him with just water. He has been drinking still but not as much as he normally does. Tried him with some plain rice last night, which he walked away from. Offered him a carrot ,which he normally loves. He sat for it a took it off to his bed but just had a lick of it and left it.
I EVENTUALLY got him to have a weetbix,mixed with warm water,just so he had SOMETHING in his tummy (his stomach was making REALLY loud gurgling sounds! LOL). And tehn last night whilst i was in the other room i heard him munching the carrot. He,unfortunately, had runny poos again this mornign though.
He is fine in himself and is right as rain apart from that (although i noticed that his nose is no longer wet now). He was his usual boundy-self on his walk .
Any idea what i can give him just to get his tummy back to full health?...any tonic or anything that people use?..any advice would be greatly appreciated..x

My rule is bad tummy = stop feeding. Starve for a day, then go back to feeding. If it continues, might need a check over at vet. As long as he's drinking.

Hope he feels better soon

its likely as the house smelled that he had an accident and cleaned it up him self by eating it - this in turn would make him worse
if he has no allergies boil a small amount of chicken and give him that if he has allergies boil an agg shell it and give him that it may take a few days to get him back on track
