The little boy, no more than 4 years old, quite shy and not more than two and a half feet tall was encouraged to try it again. Gobi is very gentle and will take the carrot slowly. Again the small hand went into the bag of carrots to select a carrot. He held it up to Gobi, but again let it go before Gobi could get in into his mouth. It was just a soft spray, but it dissuaded the little boy from trying to feed Gobi again.
Camels are primarily grazers.
Most of the food which they eat at my farm consists of grass and hay. I also feed them a supplement of grain which has addition protein, vitamins and minerals in it. In addition, camels love carrots, apples, bananas, sweet potatoes, and many other crunchy vegetables and fruits. They also browse and nibble the tree leaves of just about any tree in their environment. When I look across into their pasture, I can see all of the trees trimmed up high, as far as the camels can reach.
