- Remember to keep the pen's door closed if you're not trying to attract a Camel - otherwise a wild camel may come and eat all the food!
Camel Graphics
- Male camels populate the left side of the pen
- Female camels populate the right side of the pen
Breeding
Camels Stud so the best ratio for breeding is 1:3 Male/Female
Camel Pheromone
A pen with 10 camels of the same gender will produce a corresponding Camel_Pheromone
Theories
The amount of straw eaten 1 or 2 might indicate the gender of the camel that didn't choose your pen. If true this will help plan when to try to attract a partner camel when in very crowded regions. Please verify
Observation: Beginning of the week, four pens each had 1 male, 1 female. Let them starve. End of the week, all four pens had 1 male each. Males may be more "starvation resistant" than females.
