I have shibunkins and koi in my pond. Around December we started noticing
baby fish (Why didn't someone tell me these things breed like guppies?) Most
of the babies are colorful and obviously shibunkins. There are many though,
that are this bland light brown color. Are these just ugly goldfish?


Thanks
Joe


Yep, ugly ones. I read that you can expect about 50% shubunkins from
breeding shubunkins, the rest will be golden fish, or maybe never turn
gold and stay bronze. One local fish shop takes them as feeders.
