16 years apprenticeship! That's true dedication wanting to learn the work. Doubt there's many places in Europe you'd be able to find people doing that these days.
I always think that opportunities to show KOI that are worth growing are not so much opportunities to touch them by netting them or scooping them into a vessel. In Japan, of course, there are opportunities to show KOI during the harvest season and for trading purposes, but for growing purposes, wouldn't it be more common to show KOI swimming in a long swim? What I am trying to say is that the better the Koi, the less opportunity there should be to scoop them up and show them that far.
@@more_koipartner I am always described as negative in this way, but I wish people in other countries would be more enthusiastic about rearing, because there are too many people who see these scenes and scoop and touch the KOI all the time, all year round, without planning. You may have entered such scenes as a matter of course because you have encountered them when buying in Japan. but try you have a collection of footage posted by our Japanese hobbyists, (It is desirable that you conduct on-site reporting Japanese hobbyists throughout the year) you can compare them side by side! aren't we on average a few times a year at the key points?
The red and black koi just pop! Wow! Thank you for explaining how Ricky chose the koi he did!
Great stuff as per usual sir,, nice 1evo, cheers Terry

Why are you always so negative?

I’m just saying wow as a guess I would say the female the one with the Sumi still to come though
I would guess that Ricky would be more open to a male koi.
😀I would guess the darker Koi is male , so most likely the brighter one is actually the male Koi and the darker is the female one . 😄💖
Less sumi is female. Head is more white and 1/2 of the body is thicker.
👍👍👍...🍻💯
The koi with the little to no black on its head is the female and the other is the male.
The one he has the certificate for is female
The lighter colored one is the male
I think so 😃
The one with the more developed sumi is male
