Donkeys and camels are both good for milk that doesn't curdle and makes delicious cheese and butter.

A donkey might actually be useful in other ways too.

Have you seen donkey tits? Much harder to milk I'd think, stay fairly flat and high against the body.
Fuck camels.

Even this would be too much daily work for me, but a dedicated milk goat would be best for a single family.

I never even thought about owning a camel and now I want one just because. I’d ride it around the property. How cool would that be.

Camels are fucking huge, but I'm sure you know someone in Dubai who can get you a good one. Maybe even a virgin one.

Cheapest camel I can find is $5500. On one hand that’s expensive for an animal of no homesteading use. On the other hand the larp would be amazing as the subdivision I have an easement through allows ppl to ride horses in it. I could dress up as a sand dindu and ride a camel. Price could be worth the larp..

Looks like you can buy zebras too but they’re mean from my experience in Africa..

Camel classifieds sure can get weird. Maybe it’s camel people?

Maybe test drive one first.


Nativity scene!!!!!

EDIT: Sorry, I don't think you can ride those above.

Go here:

Awesome.

How many hump camel should I get? Apparently there are dromedary (one-hump) and Bactrian (two-hump) camels.

I feel like two hump is the way to go for the larp. That way I can brag to the poors about how two hump camels are superior to one and only poors would own a one hump.

I don't know anything about camels, but I feel like it might be one of those things where going for the absolute cheapest option might be ill-advised.
I mean, I don't think I'd want to deal with a really good camel, let alone a wish.com camel.

Camels are one of the last things on my "list" of animals I always wanted but don't yet have. I think the white Bactrian ones are beautiful, but go for 20k+

Ya I’m thinking the same thing. Decent camels seem to go for around 10k.
