Thank you for your reply.
Before my friend got Morbol Green, she had Hunter Green. I've found the calculator after I made that post, so she did feed him 1x Pear and 5x Apple and actually got back to Hunter Green.

EDIT: She just told me, that she read someone got Soot Black after feeding 2 Berries and 3 Apples. She will try it with that combo now.

Not sure what to feed my Chocobo. Trying to get him to be Currant Purple. Keep bouncing back and forth between Royal Blue and Regal Purple. So far all I've fed it is berries and apples. Any suggestions peeps? :/ Checked out that calculator, how accurate would you say it is?

Hi I got my chocobo currant purple with these steps! (I'm trying to get soot black)

1)From regal purple: 3berries, 1 apple, 1 valfruit =abyssal blue
2)From Abyssal blue: 4apples =Rolanberry red
3)From Rolanberry red: 3berries, 6pears, 1plum =Midnight blue
4)Midnight blue: 4pineapples =Currant purple

Thank you!!! Already fed it 3 pears and it said new feathers so I'll wait to see where it ends up n go from there I guess. But I'll definitely try your steps though

I have been trying since two days after the patch to get Lotus Pink. Never could. Tried all the charts, all the original recipes people said.. nothing got me it. I would constantly get stuck going from Ice Blue to Sylph Green, sometimes Snow White and then back to Ice Blue.

Well.. I decided to give the thing on http://www.ffxivchocobo.com/ a try before... and I got Lotus Pink on the first shot. I fed exactly what it said to get from Colibri Pink (Which I was already at) to Lotus Pink. I can't believe it worked. I fed it the fruits randomly. A few plums, then a few valfruit, then a few pineapple, then a few more plums, valfruits, pineapples, etc. I am so happy I finally got it.

I got soot black today. After nearly 2 weeks in the loop I tryed to with this methode: deepwood green I feed 2 plums (no new feathers message) then I waited 6 hours and feed another 2 plums and got soot black. I used the calculator website for help. I think even if u don't get the new feather message u manipulate the values. I hope it can help someone to break the loop

Thx guys for this thread. Helped me a lot

Gratz on your achievement! So question everyone, once you get the new feathers message...if you keep feeding it will it continue to influence the change of new feathers or is it best to just stop n wait after the new feathers message? Used the calculator and fed it the fruit it said I should and got new feathers after jsut 2 pears and kept feeeding it. After the 6 hours I came and checked on it only to have it land on Royal Blue once AGAIN!!! :/ Fed it Val Fruit and several berries and didn't get a any message about new feathers.

At this point I'll just settle for Abyssal Blue or if anyone knows how they can push for Grape Purple from Royal Blue that'd be appreciated.

If you didnt get any new feathers messages towards the end, you were having an unlucky RNG streak and probably needed to keep going, 1-2 more fruit would have probably pushed you into the correct colour range. But it's a case of human calculation at that point, not sure what colour you were coming from originally, but suppose it doesn't matter now.

Need to know specifically what you have fed after it changed to Royal Blue so we know where your RGB values are at. Then we can help you get Grape Purple.
