I'd also like to point out that there is also the chance of an HQ-like result as well. One other person here was doing the same as my husband and feeding Berries from the start, and stopping after the first "new feathers" each time.

Hubby's result Desert Yellow>UI Brown>Aldgoat Brown>Shale Brown
Other's result Desert Yellow>Cork Brown>UI Brown>Gobbiebag Brown>Aldgoat Brown>Shale Brown

Also seen Royal Blue + Apple = Abyssal Blue or Regal Purple
And Desert Yellow + Plum = Cream Yellow or Sylph Green
