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

if im right then to copy kaelahs sylph green you just need it to say the feathers are changing 3 times which can take 3 fruit or more anyone willing to test it will please do just have it say the feather change 3 times with plums only. the numbers are unknown but it most likely 3 since i fed mine 3 before it said anything which if its 3 it stops you from skipping colors. Which im thankful for if this 4 or more i think you can skip colors because of rng.
seems im at daily limit for posts. My chocobo was fed 3 before it read message i did not record how many i got after but in total i feed it 6 apples. its current color is Millioncorn yellow. then i fed it 7 more apples before i got the message which means that the changes are based on the plumage message. but that also means that it can take more then 3 fruit to go up a tier i will post color changes as i add more red i will continue tell i can no longer change its color.to get all the red colors for it* and my friends chocobos colors as well.

I can add additional data for this using three additional birds.

My Personal Bird
Rank 8 Chocobo
Fed 5 Doman Plums before receiving the "<name> is beginning to grow new feathers!" message.
Result: Sylph Green

Bird #2
Rank 9 Chocobo
5 Doman Plums before receiving the "<name> is beginning to grow new feathers!" message.
Result: Sylph Green

Bird #3
Rank 8 Chocobo
4 Doman Plums before receiving the "<name> is beginning to grow new feathers!" message, 5th Doman Plum also got him the message.
Result: Sylph Green

I don't know what color Bird #3 would have been if he'd only been fed 4 plums. I also want to add that after my bird was turned Sylph Green, I fed him apples to attempt to return him to Desert Yellow, it took only one apple to do so. I am attempting the same experiment with an FCmate's bird using the Pears and Valefruit.

I obtained an Aldgoat brown color by feeding my chocobo just 8 O'Ghomoro Berrys

[Mishini_Dracoto]

I used 15 O'Ghomoro Berries, 8 Xelphatol Apple, and 8 Mamook Pear. I got "Lilac Purple." Trying for rolanberry and wanted to see what half of what was recorded would be.

15 / 5 / 5 got the same result. Lilac Purple. I fed another 2 / 2 / 2 after that before I went to sleep -> I'll be checking my Chocobo @ Lunch to see the result.

My Goal is Soot Black, I think @ Lilac Purple most of the RGB Values are likely close to each other since it seems fairly dark, now I need to keep an even spread of fruits and see what I get.

I did the same thing as kaelah last night.
1st 6hr feeding - all plums
1st feed - plumage will change in 6hrs
2nd,3rd & 4th feed - just said devoured
5th feed - new feathers growing
after 6hrs Result was sylph green

started 2nd 6hr feeding was only valfruit
1st feed - plumage will change in 6hrs
2nd & 3rd feed - just said devoured
4th feed - growing new feathers.
wont see result till I get home will edit post then.

[Budukai]

Oh nice, so I'm thinking of giving mine 2 more apples and 2 valfruit to suck out the green. At work, but glad the weekend is here for experiments.

[Recaldy]

7 berries, 9 apples, 20 pears

Fed berries first but all in one 6 hour set.

Result: Lime Green

[Renik]

Here's my theory:

-each fruit can have negative and positive values in the RGB scale.
-The condition of the stable affects said values.
-The message new plumage message will show when the value is enough to change from one color to another, and will be showing every time if you keep feeding the same fruit.
-If after receiving the message you feed it another kind of fruit it will only appear again when the value is enough to change the result of the first feed, but keeping it's progression.

Negative (-) means going to 0, positive (+) means going to 255.

Xephatol apple: R(+?), G-, B-
Doman PLum: R(-?), G(-?), B+
Mamook Pear: R-, G(+?), B-
Valfruit: R+, G=, B+
O'Ghomoro Berries: R-, G-, B(+?)
Cieldalaes Pineapple: this one is giving me problems but if i have to describe it i would say R+, G+, B(-?)

[Kaelah]

So guys how do you check remaining time without having to feed more?
I just fed mine another pineapple to see the timer. (1 hour 42).
It gave me the new feather message again. Gah, was kinda hoping it wouldn't cuz I wanted to see if just 1 new feather message would change it.

Ahh I see where now.

Has anybody got a link to this spreadsheet that I have seen mentioned? This thread has about 50 new pages since the last time I checked it and I haven't got time to check them all

Congrats on your Chocobo's guys, they look great.
