Thanks Dick,
That's all useful information for sure. I think these global warming winters may cause people to overfeed koi that wouldn't even normally be hungry and begging.

Do you think a female koi that is bred every year in the Spring will grow as large as it would, if it was not allowed to breed? I understand the dangers of having aggressive males in with show females, but if your goal was jumbo pond fish, would breeding be a hindrance?
thanks,
Mitch
