The aim of this article was to review the milk let-down in camels and to propose a simple milk recording method. Milking of camels generally starts between 1 and 3months postpartum. The udder is stimulated for 0.5 to 2min by either calf suckling or hand massaging to induce the milk let-down. About 40% of daily milk yield is consumed by the calf before and after milking. The best interval between milking is 8-12h. Lactation length is in the range 8-18months, and the mean total milk yield is 1000-4000kg. Peak yield of 4 to 10kg is attained between 2 and 7months post calving, and persistency is greater than 85%. The proposed milk recording method for camels has been adapted from ICAR's procedures. The milking (manual or machine) starts after a suckling period of 1month. Before each milking, the udder is stimulated for 1min, either by calf suckling or by hand massaging. The milk recording interval is 36days. The first test recording must take place within 75days following the end of the suckling period. Milk yield recorded is the milk off-take or milked only. The lactation period corresponds to the milking length. Records are standardized to the reference lactation of 335days. At each recording day, milk yields are recorded and milk samples are collected alternatively at either morning or evening milking. It was concluded that using this method, a sound milk recording database will be built for camels.
