| Ochiba
Looking for some input/opinions...
For the past couple of years we've been trying our hand at breeding, learning a lot, having ups and downs as we go. This year we feel we've almost hit the mark with regards to rearing success, our numbers are much better this season. Our main choice for breeding, Ochiba. Parents: 5yr old female wagoi Soragoi and 3yr old male doitsu Ochiba. We also used a 12yr male Koromo (Ai-goromo) as we didn't have other males of age/size and thought it might be a kick to see what came of the offspring... there are a few with kohaku patterns and we hope to see eventual robing of the koromo.
Here's a few snapshots. 9 weeks old. |
