Offspring from Platinum koi, Bonnievale

Admin · Subject: Offspring from Platinum koi, Bonnievale Thu Oct 08, 2009 9:06 am

The breeding season has just started as can be seen from Jaco's latest offsprings.

I am going to keep it simple this year by trying to breed only with Ogons (Chogoru purachinas and Yamabubi's - male and female of each), trying to produce Purachina, Yamabuki and Hariwake and will post development.

We are always behind down here in the Cape, and I am waiting until it is a bit warmer.

It is extremely exciting to see the harvest of thousands of small koi after a successful breeding.

I took this photos at Platinum koi two years ago after a successful breeding program.

Pitty that all these koi had to be culled after they detected KHV.

All those white together looks stunning, like it's glowing.

Incredible.

Were those platinums bred from the famous japanese platinum breeder?

I suppose you refer to Chogoru. I do not know which parent stock Servaas De Kock used at the time.
