Couple days ago in sunny day, the water of mud pond which contain 4sai was very clear so I hide in the bush for 10 min and wait for koi. . . Here they are! I hadn’t seen any of them during summer time but I hopefully could see! Because they are very sensitive for sound, I filmed movie with silence. This year, we had very big rain in summer and was worry about their development but I think they should be fine. I believe their body got fat enough. This is rare shot because I hardly see them so clearly.

This is 2sai Kohaku, 57cm, offspring of Shirayuki, again. This koi has more red beni color than previous one I introduced on this blog but it is elegant and bright color. The character of this koi is beautiful Shiroji and big pectoral fin. You may not believe this is 2sai seeing from movie because of face and back born. It looks like iron bar is in it! As same as previous one, this is also offspring from Shirayuki. Let’s see which type would develop more.

This is 2sai Kohaku, 54cm, offspring of Shirayuki. Check this beautiful, stream hi pattern. Quality of beni and Shiroji are very nice. The beni is very shinning and Kiwa is strong and sharp. Lots of koi from Shirayuki have unique head and body structure but this koi has smooth, softness and room on body. Because we just started using Shirayuki as parent koi since these two years, we don’t know whether this kind of koi or stout koi become good . . . but . . . it is worth to check it out!

Very interesting Tancho Showa was harvested. It is 3sai and 62.5cm with very strong impact. Some people would not like it because of strong Sumi. However, from breeders’ point of view, it is truly rare and very hard to breed this kind of Tancho Showa. Truly red beni, good quality sumi and bulky body. The amount of Sumi is also character and attractiveness of this koi. Please imagine when it becomes more big. I would call it “Deep Impact”(It is one of the best horse in Japanese Horse Race history.)

This is Kohaku, 2sai 54cm. The parent koi of this Kohaku won Grand Champion at All Kanto(owner is Mr. Shibayama) and Tokai District(owner is Mr. Yokoi). These brothers and sisters are first offspring from its parent koi. The name of parent is “Shirayuki”(It means “White Snow”) and Kagura bloodline. The parent koi looks great and perfect body when I found it at Kachi Koi Farm in Fukui pref.. I knew it was too much favor but I begged Mr. Kachi to sell this koi. When I look at this koi, it doesn’t have any Hi and totally Shiromuji. However, Tecchan(son of Mr. Kachi) said it has bright and good beni. Because I trust him 100%, I couldn’t resist myself to use our male parent koi with this female one. Hopefully, body structure genetically look after their parent and we got a few koi with true Kagura beni. It is just 2sai at this moment but they will be harvested from mud pond. I can say, you can expect on this. The parent koi is absolutely . . .moster . . .

This is also 2sai, 50cm Showa. It is Maruten four step pattern. The size of body is still 50cm but it has stout body and good quality. Sumi is still 50% fixed but it has finished Motoguro and I know its sumi will be more solid. It is good Tategoi.

This is 2sai, 50cm Showa. It has excellent beni quality, well located Sumi and four step hi pattern. Perfect. Compare with other 2sai this year, it is bit smaller but this is very outstanding and eye catch koi in the pond because of good pattern and quality. When it grows into more rounded body and sumi become more stronger, absolutely for koi show.

This Showa is 57cm, 2sai. This koi has extraordinary body structure. The distance of eyes, height of body, muscle surround body. Atmosphere of this koi is not 2sai . . . The best beni, the best sumi and this pattern . . . I personally like showa which shows this kind of shiroji. Sashi is bit strong but it shouldn’t bother much because lots of koi which has high quality beni has strong sashi. please come and take a look at this real fish at our farm.

This koi was introduced last year when it was 2sai. Its Beni is very unique and contain brightness and shining in beni. In addition, asagi zumi is well placed as patter on body.

Above movie was filmed when it was 2sai. And today, it is harvested as 3sai, 65cm! When I picked up from mud pond, I was soooo excited. It became more attractive because it remained beauty since last year and add presence. But it is still 3sai. How it will be in the future. . . amazing . . .
