I didn't get while. I actually ended up with Lotus Pink

Definitely not what I was going for, but I will keep it. I actually like it, and I don't see many pink birds out there on my server.

I wanted Lotus Pink and the only way I read was someone stopping by on Snow White, so I fed mine the exact same as what you did. You got Lotus Pink, I got Bone White. It was supposed to be Snow White. This RNG is infuriating.

Feed valfruit till first "new feathers" message and you should get Lotus pink or very close to it.

Anyone got their bird land on jet black or pure white yet ?

Just did 18 berries 5 pears 3 plums.
Going from desert yellow to raptor blue

Got the ps4 to record it.

EDIT: Got Seafog Blue, Had to tweak it from there and managed to get raptor blue ^^

So darned simple after mucking about for days and getting nothing I wanted. I fed him a lemon to revert to desert yellow and then fed him everything you see in the photo text in one feeding making sure to only feed a few of each fruit in rotation until it was all gone. 6 hours later my baby is as white as the driven snow! :)

ugh why won't the pic show...right click it and pick show in another tab and it works fine

Note: I used the "Original" RGB values with the +/-5 integer for my calculations.

Manual Math
Focused on bringing your RED down first and then the BLUE.

4 Pear (-20, +20, -20) 75, 62, 51
5 Berries (-25, -25, +25) 50, 37, 76
2 Apple (+10, -10, -10) 60, 27, 66
2 Pear (-10, +10, -10) 50, 37, 56 <- End RGB (approx.)

Combined Feed Option
You should see at least 1, if not more, "Feather's" messages by the time you're done.

x6 Pear
x5 Berries
x2 Apple

Hey Syrehn. Took a break but back now and after doing the micro feed it actually sent me back to Royal Blue. Suggestions?

Referencing the calculator it tells me to feed:
1x pineapple
3x pears
4x apples

This will supposedly help me hit Currant, was shooting for Grape but imma just gamble Currant at this point, it suggests to microfeed. So how would that be?
1x pineapple
2x pears
2x apples
1x pear
2x apples

something like that?

Is there a Wiki or some site that has a comprehensive rundown of the choco colouring? at least to the best of our knowledge so far. And can the OP put it in the OP of his thread? easier than sifting through all 200+ pages of posts. Thanks!

I think you can't reach those colors with chocobos yet, if someone can confirm would be great but I assume that they will add them in a future patch.

If you're at Royal Blue, depending on your exact RGB value, then Grape Purple should just require apples - maybe about 6? (Royal Blue - Abyssal Blue - Grape Purple). It might help if you take your Chocobo out of the stable before feeding again - I haven't been able to test enough to determine if that normalizes the color value.

If you went ahead and got Currant Purple, then Grape Purple should just require a couple of more apples from there.
