I paid for it all by myself. My cousins herd it for me across Mudug and DDSI. I’m a true geeljire in a sense.
I own 40 camels in DDSI and Mudug

Your not your just an owner you probably never even tasted caano geel
How much did you have to pay?
Caano geel is bitter. I’ll teach you how to make a fire, sleep in the dirt and milk camels if you ever in my backyard. I spent a couple of years with very toughened hawdians. Walahi the place is not for the faint of heart
I’ll probably give some away for dowry when I go back to marry Ogaden.
A fair price. Bought from my sub clan relatives. They own many camels.How much did you have to pay?
we have ‘xeer’ and ‘daqhan’ in our regions. We aren’t like some Southern folk who went full bandit. I pay them a certain sum to look after my camels.
I’m probably your junior by age and my herd will grow with time.

your telling me you paid between 40 and 80k for your herd or you paying it monthly like a water bill 
Paid way less. I paid the local/native sub clan price. Each was a little less than $500. I spend a week in Hawd every year camping with my blood relatives. These guys aren’t afraid of wild life at night. I almost shit my pants the first night.your telling me you paid between 40 and 80k for your herd or you paying it monthly like a water bill
I also have to worry about land mines for every step that I take when there.
Why didn't you use the money to buy lands instead?

I find that a little hard to believe sxb anywhere in somalia you go minimum camel price is 1500-2000 depending on the age. And even then the maintenance cost would make it a bit more expensive. Why the need for so many camels can you justify such an investment if your not a geeljire
I have older diaspora adeers from Mudug in the business. The trade will flourish once the Garacad port is complete. Those prices are exaggerated. They don’t even go for that price to the fellow Arab states

I think the prices have gone down in the past few years my dad said they’re now usually between 800 and 1500 seems like you got a good price
lack of demand from the Yemenis in the war maybe
Not needed at the moment.
