      My Koiphenville keepers

      Not sure how long it's been since my family was blessed with touring Steven and Mary's home, but it's been a few years. Rainblood and myself picked out some fry from one of Steve's spawns and I brought back a few hundred babies to grow out. A few months went by and made my first selection after winter broke then again before summer. I ended up keeping 2 koi and the rest went into my neighbors mud pond. Here are a few pics of the 2. The biggest is named Stevie and the small one is Mary.😀

      Both colors of your Ki Utsuri are very strong.

      The majority of Ki Utsuri's Ki, are most often really Wishy-Washy.

      Not a very strong color at all in the 3 colors of the variety.

      Do you know the variety of parents,possibly Ogons?

      I couldn't tell you what combo. I had looked for one for years, so you can imagine my surprise when I got one from a flick spawn.

      YEP. As we speak the Koi breeders of Japan are disparately searching for breeding pairs that can produce these amazing asagis. BIG bucks.
