At Abyssal Blue, want to go to Grape Purple

I've used simulators which was a bust, I've combed through the internet and followed both charts I've seen floating around. There seems to be hardly any information on birds this color so could someone direct me.

Everything go according to my calucation.
Total Fruit - 7 Val 2 Plum
Feed Order - 4 Val -> 2 Plum -> 3 Val
Feather proc message at 3rd Val and everyfruits after this til empty.

They all matter, it's amount of berries. So far, we have seen that the proc only indicates a change in color took place, but what comes before also counts. Some people have changed colors with one fruit, others with 3, and as you'll see in the calculator, there is a tolerance in the range of where you land that when viewed in changes across RGB, you may land in one with one value being higher than the the accepted and may need one more or less fruit to get that value to change into the desired color.

As it calculates through all the colors to land at your desired, it goes through the ranges that may add up over time with feeds and considers that for adjustment (you may have landed in Sunset Orange same as me, but depending on feeds, your red value may be higher than mine and we may need one more or less fruit overtime)

Used plums and 1 Valfruit and got Syph Green ... but no biggy, cause everything I see online shows that it's just 1 step from Snow White or Ice Blue with the use of plums. Gave him plums until 1 message and came to find that he's Celeste Green. :/
Gave him an Apple, message on the first fruit so I let it be. Came out that syph green. Gave him a plum again with a message on the first one and left it like that ... will see how it worked out when I wake up.

It he comes out Celeste Green again I'm gonna have to try something else.

Maybe try removing either red or green? Instead of adding? I'm not sure. It seems that you were on the right track when you hit celeste green and maybe should've added another plum instead of an apple. Almost like the apple backtracked and pushed you back into the green-ish spectrum.

While reproduction of steps is not always guaranteed to work, my chocobo went from Abyssal Blue to Grape Purple by Feeding 2 Pineapples (2 procs) + 2 berries (2 procs) + 2 pears (2 procs) and 2 apples (2 procs)

The math and simulator suggest 1 pear, 2 apples and 1 pineapple. Those cycle you through midnight/abyssal blue like I had and the pineapple throws you to grape purple like I had before, too.

2 of each as suggested above would land you on currant purple.

Check it out and post whichever result to know them and prove validity, but if it lands on either, it proves the validity of this simulator even more, which would be great feedback.

Ok I'll try feeding this. If I get sent somewhere else whacky I'll report back in the 6 hours.

Wait, i have no experience in google spreadsheets, how do i select the colour?

My first attempt i wanted ice blue, followed what others had done to achieve it and got Lotus Pink.
Reset it and this time followed what someone had posted to get Snow White, yesterday when i logged in what do i get, Bone White. So yeah there has to be RNG involved, more so then real life RGB. I think i will feed him plums to try to get to blue in my attempt to achieve ice Blue once again
