Mike, I had to think awhile about your post.....because you know, your right, over the years with one exception I can't remember any of the ochibas with great patterns as not being male. The one female I saw came from Pan Intercorp a few years back, was a lightish blue field with good oranish color
and the pattern could best be discribed as Fawn like ( lots of dappling )

When it comes to selling their crop, japanese breeders are more than happy to send their living jewels anywhere in the world that will pay the best price for them. If you look at top shows from around the world, taiwan and Thailand do manage to get a fair share of everything.
