at wich age is good to start riding camels? so if we start trining since 7 month old, which age do you think it is O.K. to start ride, to not make damage on the bones structure. thank you.

I certainly wouldn't start working seriously with a camel until it was at least 4 - 5 years old - 3 years for ground work, de sensitisation and perhaps light weight children, 4 years for light weight adults and 5 for general work - but this in turn, depends on the amount of ground work and how much you have built up a camel in advance - I strongly recommend you contact camels clicks who is often in Europe if you want advice on training camels... She's a great trainer!

I've read and heard that a camel should not be ridden before three years of age.
