 Help Me !!! Sick Gecko

Hey. I have a gecko. And he is sick. His tale is skinny and he falls asleep alot. I think i gave him to much calcium. I messed up by putting it in his water and now i think he is overloaded with calcium. I am taking the crickets out of his cage for the day and gave him fresh bottloled water no calcium and a toilet paper bed for him to rest on. Any tips? Also can i put beding in his cage instead of green carpet. The person at the pet store said carpet but it gets to dirty and troublesome. He needs help. So please help me out to care for him

what species of gecko. Being thin has nothing to due with a calcium overdose.

Well just like any sick animal you take them to the vet. Sounds like it could be parasites or something.

FYI goldens do not have eye lids as far as i know(and i have one so i should know) so if yours does have eye lids it is not a golden gecko.
