Takigawa Koi farm




After two very cold days it was nice to see the sun and after 30 mins drive from my Hotel I was at Takigawa. Last year work had started on improving his outside ponds and new Koi house and it was good to see it completed ready for this years spawnings.


 

  Takigawa was busy grading his Tosai g0-sanke , many breeders dont sell Tosai this early as they need to grade a couple more times, selecting their Tategoi to sell later or put in the mud ponds.

I had come to buy Karashigoi , this variety is the trend at the moment and have seen then at three farms in 5 days. Last year i bought some Jumbo Tosai and Tosai and needed to stock up again.

  

A box of 18cm Tosai were selected and 6 superb Female Karashigoi and Kigoi Nisai 50cm.



I will be back at Takigawa in April for his Gosanke tosai.

In the afternoon it was back to Oishi Koi Farm for some more Nisai varieties I had seen earlier in the week
