how young is your gecko?.. its suppose to be skinny if they are just born but it should be fattening up.. i dont know about the eyes part. Maybe he is really tired?

The warm side needs to be at about 90-92 degrees. Also, make sure you aren't using a light. What are you feeding? I would also recommend taking it and having a fecal done.

That temperature is not warm enough. Your geckos needs around 90-92 degrees (belly heat) in order to maintain it's digestive system, metabolism, and immune system.

I'm starting to have the same problem with my Gecko. She eats regularly.. the heat is at 90-92 on the warm side.. and she is active.. but her tail is shrinking in size. I don't know what this means. :(.. is it a calcium thing? and no.. I don't have pictures.. sorry my camera sucks..
