Rode em on the back side of the Pyramids in 2010. Used to carry flat bread and cookies with us in Saudi to feed them when we ran across a herd in the desert. Most were well socialized and would eat from your hand or stick there head though the car window to eat. My wife and the other ladies in our compound would visit camel farms for fun and ride them all the time.
Ate camel T-bones off the grill and the cafeteria at work had it on the menu every few weeks.
Yep, have even milked Cow Camels, pretty cool, you have to have the calf suckle it before you can actually milk it, calf has to get the flow going.
So the calf works as a sort of fluffer?🤣
Yep, pretty much.
One of the guys I worked with, about 6 months in while I was working in Saudi, comes into the office after a day of training with the Saudi NG, one of the soldiers convinced him to have some camel milk. No my buddy was a brother from the Virgin Islands, he said sure, I'll try it, comes into the office bragging about how good camel milk was, saying it was salty and sweet at the same time. I looked him dead in the eye, and as straight faced as I could asked if the camel only had one udder. Took him a few minutes to get it, he come back and called me an [bleep], and thought the camel had 4 udders....Uh, pretty sure they only have two unless it is a mutant camel. Covering for himself i think.
