Even with soaking, would it hurt my leatherback any to apply lotion or coconut oil now and again? I know that the latter it is GREAT for use on humans to keep the skin nice. Just a question based on my own curiosity really.
 
Leatherbacks do not need that type of care.when they are shedding an ocassional soak helps but keep in mind that a shed may take a few weeks until your beardie looks fit and buff again. :)
 
If you're using the oil topically, coconut is beneficial for dragons, as far as we can tell. Pure, all natural Aloe Vera does wonders for skin care as well :) Now, if you're just trying to loosen up shed, mineral oil also works!

I would avoid lotions as many of them have added ingredients that aren't fantastic for dragons. Hope this helps! :)
