Foster Care Fish Head for New Home

Today Gayle came by with a large bucket and we caught about a dozen fish from the foster care pond. One of her two had grown to be 6 to 7 inches long. Her second, the white one either didn't grow at all because we did catch one white one. But I suspect her white one was lost to the hawk. The fish we caught included a number of Goldfish, a Black Goldfish and a multicolored Shubunkin. If these fish are close to being as fertile as their parents, she'll have a pond full of fish by next fall. Tomorrow if the weather permits, I'll clean the small pond and see if we missed any of the foster care fish.
