Chocobo dyeing R&D Thread - Post your results here!

FC friend got Regal purple from 25 Apples, 25 Berries and 25 Pears (all 3 deepen fruits).

Alright, so sadly, I have another update. I say sadly because I failed to get from Loam Brown -> Black after my latest attempt, however, for people that prefer this muck of a color I discovered, here is Hunter Green. I have no idea where to go from here to get to black.

EDIT: Had a slight typo on the original image. Changed x15 Mamook Pears ---> x25 Mamook Pears.

I went to the university of texas so I might go for a burnt orange!

I really want to see Ink Blue, so if you happen to get it, screen!

Thanks to everyone who has posted info and screenshots in this thread!

I've been able to update my FFXIV Chocobo Resource document with every color that has had a screenshot posted in this thread, as well as a few that were on reddit:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/...sharing#gid=15

If people want to help me out in the future for the colors I'm missing, the optimal screenshot I'm looking for is A cropped image of just the chocobo with no barding taken during the daytime out in the field (not in the stables) with the companion window open next to it showing the color. Just today I was able to get an image of over half of the possible colors, so hopefully in the next few days we as a community can get screenshots of the rest!

And once the exact mechanics are figured out for the color system and how each feed affects the chocobo, I'll be updating each color with how to obtain that desired color.

Oooooh! I want that and I gave mine some plums already. Dammit.

I fed mine 1 valfruit - no change after 6 hours.
Next fed 1 o'ghomoro berry - also no change after 6 hours. Desert yellow still!

When my fruits are ready I'll start with the big feedings I guess....

Total feeds:
First 6 hours: 1 red+, 2 blue+
Second 6 hours: 10 Green- , 2 blue +

Thats the color im going for! In a few hours Ill be up to about 22 total pears. I'm thinking I can get to hunter green from subtracting red/blue as well.

I got Sylph green.
Fed 5 x plums.
First plum gave your chocobo will grow new plumage in 6 hours message. 4th and 5th gave Your chocobo is growing new feathers message.

Ooooeh please do let me know if you try that. I have already given mine 5 plums and would like Hunter green. Gonna try to get to Apple next if not Hunter.

I'm surprised no one in this thread has yet suggested that Stable cleanliness might affect the effects of feeding snacks to the chocobo. It could easily explain why 21 o'Ghomo Berries yielded 3 different colors to people so far. Of course, IF cleanliness matters. Man, that's a whole lot more science to do now :(
Maybe we should start stating stable cleanliness too for science
