July Fry Update – Round 2 Karashigoi/Chagoi Now Available + Spawning News
We’re well into the 2025 fry season now, and it’s time for an update on everything happening here at Byer Koi Farm. We’ve had a busy few weeks, and we’re excited to share what’s now available — including a special opportunity for experienced hobbyists looking to rear young fry from a top-quality parent line.
🐟 Karashigoi/Chagoi Fry – 3–4 Weeks Old, Ready Now
We’ve just released a special batch of 3–4 week old fry from our Karashigoi spawning. These are from our brand-new Yagengi Karashigoi female parent, and we’re very happy with the quality so far.
-
These fry are unselected and bagged directly from our hatchery, offering you a rare chance to raise them from an early stage.
-
Expect to see Karashigoi, Chagoi, and possibly other single-colour koi emerging from this batch.
-
They’re around 10–15mm, and have been weaned onto a fine crumble food.
-
For best results, we strongly recommend adding a fry food pack to your order – with or without Artemia, depending on your setup.
-
Important: These younger fry are more delicate and suited to hobbyists with some experience rearing koi from early stages. We include 10% extra in the box to account for transit loss.
Delivery dates available:
📦 Wednesday 16th or Friday 18th July
