Ink Blue + 1 Pineapple + 1 Apple + 1 PEar = kobold brown

Mine is blood red right now! D: I have a thread on how I got there. If you can tell me how you got from there to Loam Brown, I can follow this!

This is definitely not guaranteed, but off my memory 1 Plum, 10 berries, 7 pears for loam brown. The problem here is I don't remember how many plums i fed.

It is indeed wrong.

1st attempt - using Royal Blue Recipe - O'Ghomoro Berry x 30, Xelphatol Apple x 10 = Regal Purple wtf????

The recipes on the spreadsheet follow number of fruits fed. However, I've noticed that the first few fruits I feed give no messages about feathers, sometimes just the first fruit sometimes the first three. After I get the feather message once, I seem to get it after every fruit.

That said, I imagine more accurate recipes would be born if we countedonly fruits that resulted in a new feathers message.

Food counting is inaccurate. I believe it relies on the feather growth message. You could follow the same food count as listed on the chart, but if that person procced a different amount of feather messages than you, then they will have a different color.

It's better to go in small increments towards the color you are looking for.

This is is correct and has been stated several times over the course of the thread. There is another thread that is tracking this data as well. The spreadsheet is not accurate in terms of it's recipes (for the most part).

Just pure berries should get you Royal Blue. You also likely don't need such large amounts, especially not from where you're at right now.

I agree, im going to start experimenting by feather messages
