6/4/12 MILKING A SHE CAMEL...

First, let the mother be suckled by the calf. I would belief, the natural squeezing by the pushing of the calf head over the breast bladder and the possibility of the release enzyme in the calf sliver, just like in the leeches of tse-tse, makes the milk to flow continuously.

(2) Then kick the calf away (that is what I saw). Human’s hands now take over the squeezing of the cow breast. The milk just shot fast to fill the bowl.

(3) Now comes the Badwi man. 500 ml of camel’s milk cost you SR5.00. It tastes great. Milky. Much concentrated than the cattle milk. Thick as the goat milk. Great to kill one desert thirst. Better if it is cool.

(4) The believe, once we love to drink cattle milk, we may love working to the effect of lembu punya susu, sapi punya nama. But if one loves to drink goat milk, he or she will just as hot as the goat. I assume if one love camel milk, sure he or she has no sympathy on the thirst of the camel’s calves. They may have to Saie just like Hajar crying for water for the calves.
