It's a tough adjustment from grape, I was on a loop with it for a long time, but try to go slowly now. Better to do little adjustments. 3 pears and 1 berry should land you in soot black, but just in case, do one of each and see if currant purple, or 2 pears for loam brown. In either case, that would be closer and if you land in those, you know what to add next.

Again, I don't recommend the big changes now.

Thank you so much for the info! I was able to obtain Soot Black feeding it the 3 pears and 1 berry from Grape Purple. Couldn't be happier and I think it is safe to say F**K THIS SYSTEM!! I am extremely grateful to all the people helping out in this thread and a very special thanks to the people making the simulators and the theorycrafting behind it all

Finally got my Etolie to turn Snow White ^_^ so happy now

Decided to trim down the barding he wore just to show it off now.

Now its time to start on my alt getting a grey chocobo

Edit: Speaking of, lets say I want to get slate grey. I know that old spreadsheet isnt accurate, but someone got goobue grey apparently just feeding o'ghomoro berries. Can I get slate grey just feeding a whole bunch of berries and nothing else? My garden plot is limited, cant grow too many at once for a few days

Guys I started to feed my chocobo and this is my results:

Starting Color: DESERT YELLOW

1st Session:

• Xephatol Apple ( + Red ) : 5
• N° of Message "Growing New Feather" : 4

Result Color: MILLIONCORN YELLOW

2nd Session:

• Xephatol Apple ( + Red ) : 9
• N° of Message "Growing New Feather" : 1

Result Color: PUMPKIN ORANGE

3rd Session:

• Xephatol Apple ( + Red ) : 10
• N° of Message "Growing New Feather" : 1

Result Color: SUNSET ORANGE

4th Session:

• Xephatol Apple ( + Red ) : 11
• N° of Message "Growing New Feather" : 1

Result Color: BLOOD RED



Comment: If We take the RGB value we can see that from Desert Yellow to Blood Red ALL color are deeper.
I think that maybe the colours didn't work at RGB value but easier with just number of food and type.

Like my chocobo dyeing, I used ONLY apple that deep the red value, so of course, starting from a yellow we slowly get orange and after red, and notice even that the number of food given seems exponential, at least giving always the same fruit.

Last thing, seems the message "Growing New Feather" saying You are inside one colour and not stepping colour by colour (like my first session), and until You didn't receive the message You are still need food, probably for getting in one only session from Desert Yellow to Blood Red You have to read Grow Message Feather and don't read it for 4 times..
Ok, I'm not very good to explain What I have to say XD English isn't my mothertongue language sry :(

I was wondering if anyone could offer any insight on how to get out of this annoying loop I'm stuck in.

I'm aiming for Iris Purple, however I'm stuck between Lavender Purple and Colibri Pink. My feeding sessions look something like this:

LAVENDER PURPLE
>> Feed one / two berries OR pears
** New feathers message **
>> Result: Colibri Pink

COLIBRI PINK
>> Feed one / two fruits OR pineapples
** New feathers message **
>> Result: Lavender Purple

I've been stopping as soon as I get the new feathers message and have only been feeding single types of feed (i.e, not berries AND pears - mainly because I'm getting the new feathers message after 1 feed).

This is driving me crazy and costing me a small fortune. Can anyone help me get out of this cycle?

35 Berry for Royal Blue :3

Here's some pics!

Try 4 plum 6 val 8 pine on Lavender | feed in this order : pine til empty , plum til empty , val til empty
Try 5 pear 3 berry on Colibri | feed in this order : pear til empty , berry til empty
At least should get you out of the loop or you might get Iris Purple you need.

So after trying for days i'm very close too soot black. I'm at deepwood green so should i feed 1 Valfruit?

Update: I feed it 3 valfruit only the last one said growing new feather message should i leave it? or take it out and try to get the message with just one valfruit?

There, got Soot black from Marsh green with 2 berries and 1 apple.

Hey guys, I've been messing around with the chocobo colours since we were able to dye them. Going from Lime Green back to the original Desert Yellow -> Gloom Purple -> Plumb Purple -> Cerulean Blue -> Mole Brown -> Gloom Purple -> Now i've landed on Shadow blue. I was just wondering if anyone has any tips in order to get this colour down to Soot Black or if it would be better to start a fresh?
