| Thanks Piet, nice having you here.
The Kohaku are the ones from the selling ponds, the better ones were already selected. |

| Some Kohaku with good potential. Nice setup.
From the photo, Saartjie rather looks like a Shiro Muji and not Sorogoi?
Are the "small kikokuryu" not rather Doitsu Gin Matsuba Ogon?

| Thanks Paul, I can assure you Saartjie is not a Shiro Muji but a high quality Soragoi of about 86cm.    |

| I bought het from Pierre Jordaan in Bloemfontein 8 years ago.
She was bred by Marusei koi farm and her mother was 1.2m long.
She is very light coloured. |

| Hi Jaco, on the last photo I can see the grey clearly. On the first photo the grey appears off-white like the Shiro Muji.

| Hi Jaco
When I came home to East London from Botswana in 2006 I travelled via Odendalsrus to see you but you where on holiday. So I appreciate Pieters photos of your ponds and koi.
I must also compliment you on your dams, your koi and the stunning babies you bred.
