momotaro male breeder

What do you think of this koi for a breeder. I got him real cheap 300.00 dollars and is about 16 inches, he is in a large mud pond till next year the I will put him with my female and spawn.

I had to reduce this pic to a very small size for some reason. I hope you can tell something about him.

What is Age?. Also, why just Momotaro bloodline Kohak for your breeding?
In my opinion I would probably use Maruyama males and use Momotaro females for breeding.

The two are just a start so I will have some good bloodlines, I will get some more to cross. I have had someone else tell me the same thing so I am thinking maybe I will buy one and cross them also. I still have a lot to learn when it comes to bloodlines and I guess I will learn as I go.

Oh yeah, how many sets of Kohak parents are you spawning or goin to spawn?
Plus if I were you since you are in the mode of growing out your parent stock males, I would try growing out different bloodline Kohaks while your at it.

Try growing out:
Nogami males.
Maruyama males.
Diainchi males.
Kensuke males.
Saki Hiroshima males.
Kazuto males.
Mano males.
Izumiya males.
Hosikin males.

I dont think you can go wrong with either of these breeders...I am sure you can get some really nice tosai from dealers.
