Paving the Way to Success in Koi Breeding

Paving the way to success in Koi breeding is a task easier said than done because Koi breeding is a business that is dominated by overwhelming, incomprehensible and simply outrageous numbers and amounts. The amount of hours the average Koi breeder has to work, the number of eggs that the typical female will lay, the number of eggs that fail to hatch, the profits to be made and many other factors are all exceptionally high. However, with time and dedication—it can be a very rewarding career.

 

The steep learning curve and the strong, and downright life-consuming commitment required in order for a degree of success to be achieved with this particular industry is enough to deter all but the most determined (and indeed foolhardy) of entrepreneurs. For those tenacious and brave few who remain firm in their pursuit of excellence and who maintain a unwavering dedication to routine, discipline and organisation will find that they will achieve that much coveted (and indeed deserved) degree of success.

 

If you are planning to get more involved with Koi breeding as a means of generating income, please be aware that you are not in for a “get rich quick” scheme, an easy ride or a soft option. You will have to be prepared for back-breaking, mind-numbing and soul-destroying work. You will have to wake up several times during the night just to feed the fish, change their water or ensure that the eggs are hatching as they should. If you intend to do this on any meaningful scale, you cannot approach this half-heartedly as it will require your utmost commitment.

 

One of the most testing parts of Koi breeding is the major financial obligation it imposes upon the breeder. Koi breeding involves the care, feeding and breeding of tens of thousands of fish at any given time and so this is a major undertaking and the logistics will involve very steep numbers indeed. The breeder must set aside sufficient amounts of food, and be prepared to buy the food in bulk. Buying in bulk will raise a couple of advantages; firstly it means that the chances of the Koi breeder running out of food are reduced to a more comfortable margin. Many companies that sell Koi food will offer discounts for a bulk purchase, and may even offer additional discounts and concessions for repeat customers so make sure you do your research and choose the best company for you.

 

Given that food is such a fundamental requirement for any organism’s survival, it is simply imperative that you, as the Koi breeder, ensure that you have a sufficient amount at any given time. It is merely a suggestion but, you may want to have a system whereby you measure the amount of Koi food you have at a particular time and if the available amount of food should fall below a certain level, you automatically place a new order in. Different companies will have different payment policies, some will require payment outright, and some will be happy to sell goods on credit which means that you have a period of time in which to may payment. Just like the food, make sure you have sufficient cash to hand to help cover the costs of such expenses.

 

Another very important factor to rely upon when comparing various suppliers for Koi food is the speed of which they will be able to make a delivery. Obviously, the quicker, the better However, this can be somewhat mitigated by the suggestion above. Make sure you factor in emergencies or unforeseen circumstances. If your food should spoil, or become unusable for whatever reason, how long would it take for you to acquire the required amount? Put bluntly, if you don’t have enough food, the fish will die and your profits will suffer.

 

Be smart, and get the finer details of the breeding program will and truly under wraps before you make any sort of purchase.
