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

chocobo one was fed 1 apple and said message at level one.
chocobo 2 was fed 3 apple and said message on thrid one.
chocobo 3 was fed 6 apples and said on thrid 4th 5th and 6th that plumage will change.
chocobo 4 was fed 5 apples and only said plumage would change on second and thrid, 4th and 5th said nothing.
chocobo 5 was fed 3 plums said color would change on second and third.
chocobo 6 was fed 6 plums and said color would change on 1 2 3 5 and 6 4th said nothing.
i will post results asap i think its based on when colors of plumage change message means that a new color. the "numbers" for each seems to be 1 - 3 which can explain the different colors and different messages displayed anyone else will to try something similar with 6 other chocobos with different colors would be of great help. desert yellow may not the the BASE color like 100 100 100 i think its higher like in the chart. so it should cap i hope rng is not involved =/ but it seems that way.

also its possible the reason different fruit combos give same color is because it maybe not have a TRUE max maybe after so maybe you go over the number and restart at bottom "most likely not". i think it follows the "tier" of colors like on the dye menu so after you get that certain color.lets say dalamud red adding another apple or apples tell you get the plumage message it should go up to red rust dye at least im hope it is.
"with add and or renamed colors" so just because the menu doesn't have a color doesn't mean im wrong just that its an added color or renamed. after this test im going to lighten and darken them again using one or two or three tell it says the message once if im right then they should change in color after seeing the message once. if im wrong they should mostly be the same color.

if im right they should all be different shades except my two control who only said it once one with 3 one with 1 apple. which would mean rng is also in this which would be bad. since that means number of fruit doesn't matter the number you don't know matters. sorry if its to long the results is what matters lol....

Actually, I might be able to shed some light on this. The difference between Midnight Blue and Dalamud Red is only 50 Red.

So, just a question of observation, is there anyone going for a brown color and planning on renaming their bird to Choco-bo? I think that'd be pretty awesome

so like i thought rng is a factor this mean to many fruit is bad and the message must matter every message must be a different color then.

So, maybe as someone suggested, the number of fruits don't matter, only those that give the message about growing new feathers?

Again, it seems that just waiting one minute between feedings gives more consistency in getting the "grow new feathers" message. Disbelieve me if you like, it's your own fruits you're wasting, not mine :3

yeah i saw someone post before me this about that but i had thought that was a factor before i got here because my friend got the message with one apple and i got after three apples.

That is my current theory, trying to test now, got another 4-5 hours yet.
