White koi Can't Post

Hello,

Here is a koi which is not a platinum ogon since it is not metallic but simply a white koi. I have a question, will kois with yellowish head turn white as they mature?



TQ.

Hi Roger

Not sure this myth is true or not. From some articles they said yellowish head could be a male and it will stay.

Hey Azli,

I think that is one of the way ppl tell the gender of a koi. But if u see closely the head of this koi is not actually yellow but the yellow is caused by the semi-translucent skull of the koi if I'm not mistaken. The head plate of the koi hasn't thicken.

I have a tancho sanke(see my previous thread) which the head is a little yellow creamy white, but it is a female Smile. But I'm just wondering if these koi which head is not white will actually whiten up as the white on the rest of the body.

Azli, this is interesting indeed!

Yeah it is a shiromuji. The shiny scale ones are gin rin shiromuji.

Looks like you have provided me a point of comparison. I really hope mine will turn out a female later. BTW, all their heads are yellowish Wink
