I tried to dye her Colibri Pink with the 7x Doman, 8x Val and ended up getting Rose Pink.
I think that what matters is not how many fruit you feed it of one type, but how many times you get the "growing new feathers" message with each type of fruit.
I think she's beautiful though, what do you think? If anyone attempts for Colibri Pink, could you count how many times you get the feathers message with the Doman and Val and report back here? Although I love this color, I wouldn't mind a more vibrant pink.

I think you might be right. I got that message twice with plums and went to Sylph Green from Desert Yellow. So in theory went from around 219R to 187R.

How do you know the choco is a boy? Do they look different? Are they all boys? Now that I'm looking, I can't find the sex anywhere. I'm going to keep on pretending it's a girl.

All of the company chocobos are male, actually. :3

To quote Petyr Winsome from The Harbor Herald:

Avian lovers now have reason to rejoice, however, for some days ago it was announced that Ishgard will once more supply the other city-states with mounts. The move has raised many a smile upon the faces of rental stable operators, but much more is at stake than the prosperity of local businesses. The resumption of imports was made possible only through the joint effort of the Grand Companies of Eorzea, who impressed upon the Ishgardians the vital nature of fleet-footed reconnaissance units in dealing with the Garlean threat. So it was that the isolated mountain nation relented and agreed to provide all three Grand Companies with birds—but not without conditions. Reluctant to relinquish their monopoly on chocobo breeding, the Holy See will permit naught but male birds to leave its domain. In response, the other nations have raised their voices in objection, and are seeking to overturn what they deem a profit-driven decision in the midst of wartime.

Not waiting to see how the protest will unfold, the three Grand Companies have proceeded to make provision ahead of the gathering storm. At home, no sooner had word arrived of the return of chocobos than the Maelstrom commissioned Naldiq & Vymelli's with the mass production of reinforced barding in a bid to strengthen its military capacity on land. Jests can now be heard among sailors that the thalassocracy will finally have a cavalry to call its own.

Just the Levin barding head piece

To reiterate, I have been reading through this thread and Reddit and there are -major- inconsistencies when it comes to people trying the same recipes. I believe color change is solely dependent on how many messages you get with each fruit per feeding cycle, not how many fruit type you feed them. For science, could we please start keeping track of how many messages per fruit we get when dying our chocos and including that information in our updates?
