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

I was attempting to get "Slate Grey" from that google document that was floating around, and ended up with plum purple.

Any suggestions on what I should feed to try to get back to the original color I was aiming for? Or perhaps or any other grey color? Or black? Or ink blue? Anything except plum purple.

Deepwood Green and Midnight Blue

Pretty sure my next feed will get me soot black. Will return with results if it does.

I hope it works out. Ink Blue and Deepwood Green are both VERY close to Soot Black but I've been having no luck on bumping my way over to Black. I'm on my 7th session now.

So I've been toying around with some people's theories on chocobo dyeing and I fully support the:

Apple +R -G -B
Pear -R +G -B
Berries -R -G +B

Plum -R +G +B
Valfruit +R -G +B
Pineapple +R +G -B

I've also realized one VERY important detail while dyeing my own chocobo. I think whatever color you give them FIRST directly impacts what color they change to the most.

Another post I read mentioned something about Primary and Secondary colors and I think that's a whole lot of true.

I fed my chocobo 1 berry > 1 apple and 4 pears from Plum Purple, had NO messages and he did not change color this morning. I then fed him the EXACT same fruit this morning in a different order: 4 pear > 1 berry > 1 apple and got feather changing messages EACH time I fed him.

This is all just my observations of course!

Try feeding Pears. Purple means you're low on green. If you're going for Grey I would think you'd need a balance of color levels.

Will give this a shot as soon as my crops come in, thanks for the suggestion.

Update on my plum purple predicament: 5 pears from plum purple got me to ceruleum blue.
