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

[Resolute]

UPDATE: Here is the story so far. I want black, so I tried the Slate Gray combination on the spreadsheet, which gave me Plum Purple. So, I fed my chocobo 1 Xelphatol Apple, 1 O'Ghomoro Berry, and 4 Mamook Pear and now I have Mole Brown. I guess that is closer to black? So, this morning I fed my chocobo 3 Mamook Pears, 2 Xelphatol Apples, and 2 O'Ghomoro Berries. I got the color change msg on the second apple and the second berry, no message on the pears. We will see... With my luck, the message appearing on red and blue probably means it will go back to purple or something.

Well, 2 new feathers are growing pineapples from Sylph green made Cream Yellow. :/
What should I do for green? I'd love Apple/Turquoise or Hunter. Suggestions?

Did mine twice, first was 3 pineapple> 5 valfruit> 1 apple turned into millioncorn yellow.

Tried again 6 Valfruit> 3 apples turned into Coral Pink.

It seems like its based mostly on what fruit you use first.

Last night i decided to take a risk to get what i want. I fed it Doman plums until i got the growing new feathers message, which equaled 4 plums. This morning i got the color Rose Pink which is what i wanted!!!

First fed (1x plum), nothing happened.

Second fed (5x plums) i got Honey Yellow

Third fed (10x doman plums, 10x Pineapples, 10x val fruit) i got Bone Yellow

Fourth fed (10x Doman plums, 10x pineapples, 10x val fruit): Waiting...

Not super happy thus far. I think my first Light Blues steered me off course towards my desired Snow White. Hoping that once one of them "caps out" if that's possible, adding more will have me hit white. That's considdering a "255, 255, 255" system, and not one where it simply shifts the more you give it of one color.

Feeding 1 berry @ Lilac Purple gave me Lavender Purple. I assume this a translation error then? There is no dye called Lavender Purple. It's called Lavender Blue as a dye.

EDIT: Fed the chocobo 1 berry and got the growing new plumage message.

Seeing if this works...I'm getting flooded with questions how I got it black.

It isn't. It's Ceruleum Blue.

After much too convoluted of a process, here is the pic. Not sure if this is even going to work.

Did you get a growing new feathers message when you fed it that one berry?

Very helpful image here. This one too- someone else had posted it before, so I take no credit for it, just reposting.



If you have yellow, and you're wanting a green bird you might want to try some plums or pears.

Nice. Hopefully get more feedback in this thread http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...entation/page2

Yes I did, let me go edit that into the post really quick. Sorry bout that.

Ugh, I give up for now. My bird wont change from honey yellow no matter what I feed him. Only thing I haven't tried is feeding him the one that changes him back to his original color. Just planted that now.

How much did you feed him and did you leave him in the stables for six hours like you're supposed to?
