Mine get a tin of fish between them and at least one raw egg per week. Other than that, natural oils from their diet help, raw chicken has omega 3 for example. Another addition for a shiny coat is cracked linseed, I use it in the minced offal/fish I make up for my dogs.
I have never gave my cocker eggs up to this point but was just thinking now that its winter it might be a good time to start so he doesn't get dry skin. I had a pug once that had notoriously bad skin and I always gave him eggs but I don't remember how many or how often. Is once a week about week? Also, do most people feed the shells as well?
