Do any of you guys keep camels?

Hi, I am a student with 4 years of experience in zoo keeping, and I'm thinking about starting a Bactrian camel and alpaca "farm" mainly for wool production once I get out of school and save up some (a lot) money.

And while I have plenty of experience in taking care of camels and llamas, I am kind of clueless about the economic side of things. So if any of you keep camels, I have a few questions:

● How much land do you need for them to be able to graze the majority of their feed? (when grazing is possible, of course)

● How much do you spend on hay per year?

● How much do you spend on the other parts of their feed?

● How much does veterinary care cost you per year?

● What are some expenses I may not be considering?

● Are you makeing any money of of keeping camels?

● Can, theoreticaly, at least a sliver of profit be made if you consider selling wool products, calves, visits to people wanting to see camels and potentially from selling meat?

Thank you in advance for any and all advice :)

TLDR: I wanna make a living keeping camels, but have no idea what things cost because stupid.

Is there an rp server that isn't an overcomplicated mess?

Hi, so today I decided to try out Red M for some rp (since I enjoy that kind of stuff), but the server I managed to get on (seriously, the connection itself is so ass...) was an overcomplicated mess of jobs and roles and non-functional shops and whatever the fuck else + no npcs, which made it basically impossible to get my bearings and therefore impossible to get into any kind of rp.

So I want to ask if you know about any server that has a rp community, but keeps things as close to vanilla as possible. Thank you in advance.

I come to you all with a request

Me and my friend recently got into an "argument" over a hypothetical scenario of Doctor Who universe vs the Warhammer 40K universe.

Now he spams us with 40k memes and I have nothing to fire back with.

​

So please, put all your best Doctor Who memes in the comments, thank you.

Can I just pick my ass up and go live on the beach in the mediterranean?

Every time I get depressed and start thinking about kms I tell myself that I can still just grab my shit and go live like a caveman in like greece or somewhere like that.

Yk just hunting fish and shit.

But is that even possible, or will the authorities just lock you up if you try to go full caveman on their coast?

Need help with a sick wild pigeon (NSFW for parasite photo)

Hello, yesterday me and my friend caught a wild pigeon that isnt able to fly away (max fly distance is like half a meter mabe less)

Now I have it at home and while washing stuck poop from its cloaca I found what I think were parasites.

I can't take it to a wildlife center, since where I am they don't take pigeons.

How can I help it?

(Photos for context.)

EDIT: Problem solved, found a vet student that takes care of pigeons

I have built my first propper base in this location, but sometimes I get overheated there for seemingly no reason (No furnecases nearby, no armor on, etc).

Any idea why, or where I should move to if its a location tied thing?
