Cameldairy,
Your babies are lovely. Do you keep camels for a particular reason or are they just pets?

Not just for pets. I will one day be milking them and selling the milk. It sells for $9. per liter and it is highly sought after for it's medicinal healing factors. Also I sell babies they start out @ $3500. and last year at an auction out west, an albino male like the one I just had born went for $12,000.

How much land would you need per. camel and how easy/difficult are they to keep?
