How many times a year kois spawn? Can't Post
Just wondering, I bought one female and one male late May this year and the second day in their new home they laid eggs. Of course I wasn't ready for this to happen so quick so I just let them eat the eggs. Now the female is pregnant again, her belly is really bloated! but the male is not doing anything to mate.

My question is, Does she keep her eggs to mature for next year? or Will she spawn again? I live in Hawaii so the temp is on the warmer side. No winter or spring. Just summer... Will it be OK for the koi?Unsure

rnino001....

With the warm temperature.....I have a feeling they will spawn again.....even very soon!!Smile

My experience, because we do get winters here (snow), my koi spawn once in summer so far

I have heard of others where they spawn i spring, again in summer and just before late fall.....

Good luck....the bloating may be a good sign....Wink

Do you have a pic of the female???Smile

With regards, Jarvis

Hey s_clan, thanks for the info. but the male looks like it has no interest in the female. but at first spawn it was all good.
this time around the male is not interested. I had a little outbreak of some kind of parasite lately and ony now i started treating it. Hopefully when the conditions become good, then they will spawn again. but what if they don't spawn again? will the female get sick from too much eggs?

I'll get picks of the female soon.

rnino001....

Spawning should come naturally.....if they does do it again this year wait till the next....so many opportunities...Tongue

Ususally, the eggs will be reabsorbed by the female and not make her sick, so don't worry too mush yet....do keep and eye on her thoughTongue

lokking forward to the pics!!! thanks

With regards, Jarvis
