Well I tried this exact combination and feeding with all the same feather "proc" messages and ended up with a snow white bird....Too bad I was going for Lilac Pink.

Got a Seafog Blue chocobo, after feeding 20 O'ghomoro Berries and 8 Mamook Pears.
The first 2 didn't give me any message, then all of the others did. Also, I gave 3 o'ghomoro>1 mamook>2 o'ghomoro>1 mamook, if you want to know the order.

I would have taken a better photo, but it was already close to night time. :(

Finally. Looks good. But I'd keep an eye on that dragoon if I was you. Seems to be getting a little too thorough with his examination there.

Congratulations on world first (?) soot black chocobo!

Share your process?

I don't quite remember how I got from blood red to loam bown, but after getting Loam Brown feed it 2 berries, 1 Pear to Deepwood green.

From deepwood green, 1 Valfruit to soot black.

What do I have to do to get from Colibri Pink/Lavender Purple to Iris Purple? ;_;

Been going back and forth between those two colors even though I'm always feeding diffrent amounts of fruits or diffrent fruits in general >.<'

My method for this was just feeding O'ghomoro berries until I got one new feathers message, and then waiting until the change 6 hours later.

Desert Yellow > Cork Brown > Ul Brown > Gobbiebag Brown > Shale Brown > Goobbue Grey > Lavender Blue

Code:

---

Amount fed                    | Color          | (RRR, GGG, BBB)
------------------------------------------------------------------
Starting Color                | Desert Yellow  | (216, 175,  80)
+3 O'ghomoro Berries,  3 total | Cork Brown      | (197, 139,  79)
+1 O'ghomoro Berries,  4 total | Ul Brown        | (178, 157, 105)
+3 O'ghomoro Berries,  7 total | Gobbiebag Brown | (180, 158, 130)
+2 O'ghomoro Berries,  9 total | Shale Brown    | (140, 122, 101)
+2 O'ghomoro Berries, 11 total | Goobbue Grey    | (130, 128, 125)
+3 O'ghomoro Berries, 14 total | Lavender Blue  | (128, 120, 169)

In theory if the change is steady someone could test whether it's amount of fruits or new feathers messages by seeing what happens if they feed O'ghomoro Berries and get the message 6 times? At least if I'm understanding things correctly.

This is some fantastic information! Seeing the colors fade into each other like that really helps visualize how this system works, and your table with the RGB values really helps as well. Thank you!

11 Berries, 10 Apples and 11 Pears got me Halatali Yellow

26 Berries and 22 Apples and Pears got me Orchard Brown

31 Berries and 30 Apples and Pears got me Wine Red.

These numbers are cumulative over three feedings and start from the chocobo's base color.

Mine is blood red right now! D: I have a thread on how I got there. If you can tell me how you got from there to Loam Brown, I can follow this!
