Maurice,
they look really nice! Now That I'm involved with the breeding end, I look at koi a lot differently than before as a hobbyist. The first think I looked for was body shape, then pec size. What they told me is that your parents genetics are strong and good and that you are not overcrowding your collection to the room available. Love the pattern on the one on the left. Question, this particular color variety likes a softer water to hang on to your yellow and not turn an orange. was curious as to your water specs
that they were raised in? Always thought water was hard in the UK?
