Tried this, first step gave me LAVENDER. That's...kind of a long way off from Ash Grey. I have no idea what happened here, and I'm not sure I want to know. I just...I don't even.

With the above calculator, do you have to feed everything it gives you all at once?

I did feed everything at once until proc, but I only had a few fruits to give.
My recipe was : 1 × Berries, 1 × Pears, 4 × Plums
I fed : 1 × Berries, 1 × Pears, 3 × Plums
I would say the calculator is for one feeding only, and not step by step, but I didn't experimented it enough to be sure.

If it can be of help, there's a note on the calculator " If any of the above fruits in your recipe are quite high, it is recommended to alternate them with the others when feeding, so that you do not max out your RGB values by feeding all of the same type of fruit at once. "

(sorry for my English ^^' )

Read this: the Microfeeding Approach

I'm stuck on Apple and Celeste green. I keep looping... any advice to get to Cactuar or Hunter green?

i got my white chocobo thanks a lot for the help ^q^

I'm currently at Plum Purple which is around RGB 114-75-101 and trying to get to Abyssal Blue 43-39-80. How should I proceed from here on out? Don't wanna reset everything once again or get stuck in a loop so I could use some little help ^

Used a few more apples and it became Rust Red?

Waiting to see what a few Valfruit will do

I got Dalamund red by just feeding apples starting from desert yellow. It took me about 40~ apples though. I didn't fed it at once, I always waited 6h after a feather proc.

Rothano blue confirmed! but not from normal yellow but a colored bird


Regal purple and then feed : 30 berries, 15 apples, 15 peers and had the message "grows new feathers" 36 times.

Hello!

Any advice how to get from Morbol Green to Soot Black? The last sheet I found doesn't have Morbol Green listed x_x

I stumbled across this link on tumblr, don't know if its actually guaranteed to work - with the calculator. But maybe someone wants to try and give it a go..
