Liz,
Calcium carbonate is a porous rock. I would not give it to your geckos it is more of a substrate for desert species. It has to be milled into a powder to be of any use for supplementation (for reptiles anyway). It could also cause impaction. Bone meal is a human calcium supplement and you should be able to find it at any vitamin store. Cuttle bone comes a type of squid. It is a calcium source (and beak trimmer) for birds. Any pet store has it; just crush it up (easily done) into a powder. Your very welcome and I wish you the best of luck =).
-Mike
