    I will have to say, I did not wake up this morning thinking that I would watch a video of camel grooming.

      Probably would be collected on a tarp like it's done with sheep, llamas and alpacas to not dirty it even more and for easier collection

    Camel kissing the camera 🤣. If she would have tried to scratch put her shedding hair naturally, she’d probably demolish whatever she was rubbing on. I can’t help but wonder if she might enjoy rubbing and scratching herself with the pasture or barn-mounted brushes you see being used for cattle? Cows seem to really enjoy rubbing themselves on the brushes, wait g in line behind herd mates for their turn for a good scratch. I’ve seen cattle brushes installed on a vertical pole so they could reach it from any angle, while others are suspended above the animals. The looks on their faces when scratching, show they truly are enjoying a good scratch!

    I am surprised you dont use a shedding blade

      Camels shed differently than horses - their hair comes out in tangled clumps, and not in a uniform manner, so a shedding blade can be cumbersome.
