Hi
I am Looking for info on what varieties when bred produce what offspring?
Does anyone know or have details of a good site or literature?
In particular I'm interested in what varieties produce kumonryu, tancho showa, ochibe shigure and kujaku. Any help would be gratefully received.

Hi,

One you wont find on the list is the Tancho Showa.

ALL tancho are a result of breeding the respective variety, i.e. Kohaku spawning will produce the odd Tancho, basically a kohaku with one hi plate located centrally on the head.

the same applies with Sanke and Showa. NO breeder has secured a Tancho bloodline , but some have found that a partcular parent set throws up more tancho than others.
