As many of you know, we race pigeons and sell breeding stock all over the world. American's don't really care about the quality of a bird. What they want is the name or the pidigree. I can get twice as much money from a so so bird with a great pedigree bred from Belgian parents as I can from a better quality bird from proven breeding parents that has no pedigree. Just dosn't make sense. I assume American koi buyers are probably the same. If it's from Japan it has to be good, right?
