| if your dealer is bringing in koi from elsewhere other than Niigata, I'd say you may be on to something.
the koi i pay attention to tend to come from that region. not because they are any better just i've spent the most time there and know the breeders.
the earthquake and it's devastation has adversly affected some breeders availability, some breeders growth of their tosai, and some breeders are without grow ponds to put them out into so they may be selling them? No one place is the same. |
