The early morning air is getting noticeably cooler, and the trees and leaves are looking a little different around here. The Koi in all the grow-out ponds are active and eating well,... both the new fry from this season, and the older Koi.
In preparation for my Fall Harvest Sale coming up in 2 weeks, I pulled up a few Koi from the grow-out ponds here to check on their progress. All is looking great! Here are a few pics.
