Ochiba Shigure

by Louis Kruger


"Big Mama"

In 2000, on the National Koi Show in South Africa, this female took first price in the Kawarimono group, size 3. She became the first parent fish to give true metallic Ochiba Shigure.

For the past four years this unique Koi line has delivered five first prices.  Since 2000 doitsu koi was introduced and the results were magnificent doitsu with clear pencil line kiwa.

These three koi was produced in 2003. In all aspects they are true beauties. Because of the crossbreeding of different types of koi, this koi variety has the potential to grow into magnificent jumbo koi. The body is strong with growth of 40cm in fifteen months. The blue background has a unique quality with good stable brown and excellent kiwa. These are true Autumn leaves on water.

A new baby for the 2004 season. Can every true koi enthusiast afford not to have one of these rarities in their ponds? 

Ochiba Shigure like these will be available at the end of April 2004. They should be between 15cm and 20cm. And now true metallic Ochiba are also available!
