Has it been figured out how to darken the color?

I'm currently at Gloom Purple, but I was aiming for Currant Purple. Checking https://kuler.adobe.com, they seem to be practically on top of each other, Currant just being darker.

Should I alternate between the deepening fruits?

Just fed my chocobo 6 apples, 9 pears and 3 berries. All at once starting from apples, and not rotating fruits. Starting color was Desert Yellow.

Didn't get a "growing new feathers!" message until the third apple. After that, all subsequent feedings had the message. So in total, I counted 15 "growing new feathers!"

I'm hoping to get Dalamud Red. I shall report the result tomorrow.

And it gave me Millicorn Yellow. I gave him one apple and "growing new feathers!" popped up. We'll see what it'll be. I'm guessing Sunset Orange?

It *should* likely be Pumpkin Orange before Sunset Orange using only Apples from Millicorn Yellow.

Cream Yellow (from Honey Yellow)
Cieldales Pineapple x9
Doman Plum x7
Valfruit x7

I don't know the exact quantities needed to reach Cream Yellow, but this is just what I fed Sunshine until he started changing feathers.

Awesome. I'll see what it does and report after the six hours are up!

Maybe I shouldn't have feed him all those pears and berries first. :/ Seems like a waste in hindsight.

Changed my birdy from Honey Yellow to Ochu Green! Very happy with the look. <3 (Was originally trying to see if I could randomly get Rolanberry Red by chance but was short on O'Ghomoro Berries and used about 28(?) it was really late for me so I don't 100% remember but the rest was the same amount as Rolanberry.)

Just checking back in.. If someone can direct me on where i should go from here.. Trying to get from Qiqurn brown to Grape purple. Please help me out : )

Alright so now my chocobo is at Qiqurn Brown from shale brown last night. Fed him 3 berries, 5 pears and 5 apples. I dont think i understand how this works so any help would be great on what i should feed him next to get to grape purple. Thanks!

You're going to have a multi-step process.

Starting Color: Shale Brown
140R, 122G, 101B

Current Color: Qiqirn Brown
147R, 103G, 56B

Desired Color: Grape Purple
52R, 36G, 54B

Your last feed (Qiqirn Brown) you managed to drop your Green/Blue but increase your Red. Your next feed should be again something like:

x10 Berries
x10 Pears

This is going to drop your Red while keeping Green and Blue consistent. This should probably put you at a dark green colour (possibly something like Ochu). Once you get to that point, repost the colour you receive and we can take another look. From there it should be a matter of dropping Green while maintaining Red/Blue.
