The owners of a farm shop and tea shop were puzzled to find one of their two camels was giving birth on Thursday – as both camels are female.

Andrew and Maria Henshaw had no idea that Doris the camel, which lives with its half-sister Delilah, was pregnant until it began to calve.

Mr Henshaw, a farmer, who runs the Mainsgill Farm Shop near Richmond, North Yorkshire, suspects that Doris, who has not been near a male camel from more than a year, was impregnanted before she was brought from Cornwall to North Yorkshire.

Solution: Have the local police take DNA swabs from all the local male Muslims. The mystery of the pregnant camel will be revealed, and then slap the new father with a paternity suit.

Obviously, Delilah knew how to use a turkey baster. /s

Yah, that was the joke I was looking for. If this was anywhere
but FR then I would have had to post it because nobody else
would have thought of it. Good work, FReeper.

What does one do with camels as livestock. I know that some people milk camels. Does any one eat camel steaks and such?

[Bigg Red]

any one = anyone

The fur is very nice, especially from the two-hump variety.

Camel hair coats, camel hair paint brushes.

...and when raised without violent training, like they do in arabia, they are actually pleasant animals to be around.

Alcohol may have been involved.

I think the ones around here are just exotic pets.

Who is the baby daddy..? A Muslim named Mohammed?

[Bigg Red]

Thank you for the information.

So the camel’s reputation for being nasty is actually due to mohammedan abuse. Surprise! Surprise!

[Bigg Red]

Okay, thanks.
