After a quite a few hours we finalised our koi buying we have purchased some really high quality koi. Before we left the farm we were given a tour through there breeding facilities.

As the farm had only just finished the spawning we got the oppotunity to see some larvae for future growing. Here there is some Shusui and Goromo still waiting to hatch with a small percentage already hatched.

Looking at the temperature its going to be a tough one today.

As always the fish from Dag noy are very special. Here are just a few to wet the appetite.

June Handpick Trip 2016

5/6/2016

Comments

 
After a few very busy months our stocks are now at an all time low. The June trip can't come soon enough!

Once again we are offering our customers the opportunity to request any variety they are after. The blog will also be updated regularly throughout the trip so stay tuned to see what we get up to on the June handpick buying trip.
This buying trip will be slightly busier than previous trips, we have extended our stay in Israel to maximise the time we can spend selecting Koi Carp at each farm. We will be purchasing some very large Koi like the ones we purchased in January and will also be on the look out for anything unique and interesting.

Picture
Picture

As we did on the last trip, if there is any variety or type of Koi you were specifically looking for, please contact us. 01253 932377 or use the contact form.

As well as selecting the highest grade Koi Carp available, we will also be hand selecting high grade Fancy Goldfish such as Oranges, Ryukin and Ranchus. This is a new achievement for Israel and the quality of Goldfish coming from these farms are at a very high standard and certainly will be competing with the Chinese and Japanese fancy Goldfish.

Having already been in contact with the farms prior to our visit we have requested some varieties already, but if there are any special fish that you may also be looking for please get in touch and we can certainly add it to the list.
Picture
Picture
Picture

All being well the first few fish shall start to go on sale in early July and for any customers that have requests they will be done before the Koi go on sale. 


All the farms are currently very busy preparing Koi for our visit and we have been told that there are a very large quantity of fish to select from.

The sizes we normally hand pick are from 8" upwards however, due to high demand for varieties of smaller koi we are also going to be spending some time selecting koi below 8".

​Be on the lookout for updates on Facebook and on the blog!  ​​
