Read This Before Breeding Koi
Thursday, May 28th, 2009Hello and welcome to this article on breeding Koi, today I am going to be giving you some tips and information on how you should go about breeding Koi.
Firstly it may interest you to know that the best times of the year to breed Koi is during the months of April to July.
This has been proven by studies and from my own experience this is the best time for mating.
Now the 1st step you are going to take when breeding your Koi is to choose the Koi who you want to breed. When I am breeding Koi I choose to breed my favourite coloured koi.
So when you have chosen your favourite Koi to do the mating the next thing you need to do is to make sure they are sexually mature, A sexually mature Koi is usually around 9-10 inches long.
The next breeding Koi step after you have chosen your Koi you want to mate is to put them in a separate pond or tank.
The tank that you put them in needs a few specific things for them to mate successfully.
