He might not for a while. How old is he? I couldn't imagine one living longer than two months in the horrible conditions he was in :/. I would probably take him to the vet to see everything that may be wrong with him. He could even have parasites, you never know :(.

Give him/her a hide box on the cool (mid-upper 70s F) side.
