Gin Rin Ochiba Shigure Koi – Key Features

Ochiba Shigure has a base color of blue-gray most often, but can be the other base colors mentioned previously. On top of the base color is the pattern like that of a Kohaku, that can come in steps preferably, but can also be one large plate on the back as well.  This pattern is usually and orange or brownish color.  The base color of the fish has a reticulation look to it like that of fine netting. This is caused by each scale being traced in a very thin line which defines the shape of each scale and make it stand out. This breed is known to be docile and friendly and can grow to large sizes as well.

About Ochiba Shigure Koi Carp

Ochibashigure (O-chee-ba-shee-gore-ay) called Ochiba (o-chi-ba) for short, means ‘leaves of Fall on the water” This is because of the original improved  breed look of a base blue-gray fish (the water) with a brown pattern on its back (the dead leaves of fall).

  • Rich, even brown colouring across the entire body
  • Unique pattern
  • Strong metallic sheen
  • Nice body shape and fin structure

Variations may include Ochiba shigure, Ginrin (sparkling scales), and standard metallic forms, and Doitsu each offering unique visual appeal.
