 '''Camels''' are a form of livestock kept in [[Dromedary Pen|Dromedary Pens]].  They are acquired through luring them from the wild by leaving [[straw]] in a pen.  Camels can be butchered to yield [[Camel_Meat|camel meat]], [[oil]] and [[leather]].  Alive, they consume straw and produce [[dung]].  In addition, female camels can be induced to produce [[Camel_Milk|camel milk]].
-{{5}}A Camel eats 120 [[straw]] per Egyptian day. All the camels in a pen eat 10 straw at the same time. Note that if there is not enough straw to feed all the camels, none of them will eat. In T4, it appeared that camels could survive for at least 10 real-time days without feeding. I have not wasted any camels to check this out.

In T4, it appeared that camels could survive for at least 10 real-time days without feeding. In T5 you will get a message that the camels look "emaciated" after 5-7 Egyptian days without feeding. After that, you will get a message that your camels are "starving"
 It appears that camels now eat on a random schedule. Sometimes on or near the Egyptian hour, and sometimes on or near the half-hour.

 Camels require a [[Dromedary Pen]] to capture and keep. Dromedary pens must be built outside on sand.

-Every day (Egypt Time) at midnight (also Egypt Time), a single camel is provided to the open pen with the most straw in each section of Egypt (narrowed down to chunks smaller than chariot regions, possibly 1k coord squares). If you do attract a camel, the amount of straw in the pen will become 0.

 Opening the pen door to catch a second wild camel will not result in the first camel escaping and wandering away.
