      I assume this is a mutt

      We just moved to a property with a fairly large natural pond. To our surprise a previous landowner tossed their Koi and goldfish from their small decorative pond into the natural pond. It's been about 5 years and there are hundreds of koi and goldfish.
      The majority of the koi look like the one pictured.
      I just wanted to know if I'm right guessing it as a mutt. And if it ornamental quality.

      Thanks

      I failed to mention the Koi pictured is 16"
      I'll pictures of other variations as I get them.

      I also had a friend say it might be a muddy orenji matsuba.

      Thanks again.

      Yes, it is a mutt... a nice mutt considering that the previous landowner tossed their Koi and goldfish into a natural pond 5 years ago.

      This looks like a Matsuba to me. It at least has those qualities.
