It tells you it will still change? Someone else who did that said there will be no more change.

i have been referring to this chart myself....

This is also good

I just fed my chocobo 5 of each of the 'lightening' hues in an effort to push it towards a 'white' path. An interesting thing to note: Every time you feed the chocobo, the time of the change is actually scaled to the first feeding. This hopefully means the effects can stack!

It can be that 'lightening' hues mean that the specific color aspect get reduced. So it would go more into the black direction instead to the white direction.

ah damns it. :P Ah well, I'l just deal with whatever I get and we'll see what happens.

Okay so Desert Yellow (default chocobo colour) appears to be 255 R 255 G 50ish B. You cannot deepen R or G any further and you can only lighten them. I tried feeding fruit in bulk to the chocobo and got results for everything but deepening those two values. It now tells me my chocobo is beginning to grow new feathers. So, within 6 hours, you can bulk feed a colour combination you desire I believe.

This is a rather interesting thing to keep up with, just so you all know.

I'm rather excited to see which direction things will go in regards to how to get the right values towards colors.

Actually, default chocobo color is: R 219 / G 180 / B 87. So you can still further deepen any color, if you desire.

We have three people experimenting right now with around 100 combined food. One person is not receiving the message that their chocobo will gain new feathers when trying to deepen red or green. I started receiving the message after using several lighten reds/greens and deepened the blue.

Oh... thanks for telling us. I guess I will need more fruits than I thought then...
Well, depending on how much they change their respective color, that is... ><

I'm eagerly awaiting the first screenshot!
Also... guess my dark red fruit will be donated to the FC. :/

To the people who said they had no change six hours after feeding, I'd just like to confirm, you left them in the stables the entire time after feeding, yes? Patch notes say you have to stable, feed, and leave in the stables for six hours to see the change - fetching negates the feed and cancels the timer.
