Dry bill

[Animal family]

My drake Cheese has a dry bill. We live in Colorado so everything is dry all the time. I was wondering if I could put coconut oil on it? Or some other oil.
Does anyone have any ideas or definite no no’s?
Thanks in advance!

what do you mean by a "dry bill"?

Do you provide water deep enough to dunk its head?..Do you mean the Bill is flaking?..That's normal..

Yes, they have a pond and several deep water buckets. His bill is sort of peeling a bit, the bill itself feels hard and normal. It’s just a bit flaky. I was going to put a bit of oil on it but don’t want to hurt the integrity of his bill. It’s just super arid here in Colorado and I use straight up oil on myself constantly.

That is normal and not needed..He doesn't need a oil up..
