Some of our Parent koi for 2009 production |
|
|
We are introducing new female parents - Nogami line Showa and Sanke from
Sakai Fish farm - breeding with our own Male parent koi. A new line of
Showa and a new line of Sanke, we are expecting a great deal.
We have expanded our raising area and added more mud ponds so that we can
produce more numbers of high quality koi.
This time, we had Ricky from UK, visiting us for a training program.
He exparienced a series of works from the preparation of spawning and up
to hte point of letting fry into mud ponds. Ricky is determined to become
a koi dealer since he was very young. He is much dedicated, he has a great
passion for koi. It also is exciting to see him gain more experiences
and grow.

Packed in plastic bags and to the mud ponds. each bag is marked with the names of the set
of parent koi |

These are fry ponds.
Fry ponds are prepared with chicken manure (dried and firmented) in order
to grow altemia for fry to eat.
That's why the ponds look brownish. |
