Question: Which do you like more bactrain or dromedary?
Why?

Quote:
I like both, we have had alot more Dromedaries than Bactrians, but if I had to choose I would go with Bactrians. The Bactrians have 2 humps, are larger and woollier. I like the looks of the Bactrians with all their wool. I wish I could afford to keep a herd of Bactrians, but they are expensive and the banker usually wants my loans paid back.

But I would also like to get some Pinto Dromedaries and Black Dromedaries.

What beautiful pictures! Peru certainly looks gorgeous!

I would love to see a bactrian camel in real life. They certainly seem like they would be overwhelming in size alone! What a beautiful animal.
