I have a 5" one, that is starting to look like a hippo!!!

ok, 'if' it has eggs...... how long does this take, before I start worrying
about 'her'.......

muffin . only has dealt with 2 & 4 legged farm animals..

muffin,

Koi usually need to be a couple of years old to be of spawning age. They
will be close to 20 inches long.

If you have one that is looking like a hippo, check for scales sticking out,
pinecone disease.
