Nope, never heard of that, no reason to use oil, good grief if you don't get it all off you'd be literally cooking your dragon when he's basking.

You can add a few drops to a slurry if they are not pooping, Or you can rub a few drops on a really tough deep shed but you have to make sure you get it all off before they bask or they can get burned...But you can use natural Aloe that would be much safer.

I've never heard of that, either. Water and oil don't mix anyway.

Olive oil is a bad idea. Coconut oil was once thought to be okay to use for stuck shed and whatnot. I actually used coconut oil on Dolly when I rescued her because I thought it might help get her to smell better. It was found though that it doesn't absorb so you would need to scrub it off real good before you put your dragon under any basking light. Pure aloe vera is the best to use to help with any shed problems.
