[zandervont]

going to feed 27x Doman Plums now, bringing the total up to 63 of those.

Guess it'd be just too darned much to ask them (SE) to tell us for sure how to do it? *sigh*

I don't mind the grind, I just want to know HOW to do it so I don't waste my time.

Exactly! Instead of just wasting time and fruits, they should've at least told us in the patch notes how this works.

This is why I'm going to wait until either:

A: The players figure it out and there'll be a guide on how to dye your Chocobo out online.

or

B: SE throws us a bone and tells us how to to do. (highliy unlikely but a girl can hope!)

*sigh* I just want my Frobisher to be rolanberry red.. is that to much to ask?!?

Nah, I'm pretty sure the devs intend for things like this to be groupwide problem-solving exercises. And while it can be frustrating on an individual level, it is cool to see the playerbase band together, share results and figure out how it all works.

After seeing this thread I fed my chocobo some more fruits.

I had given him 1 O'Ghomoro berry earlier today.

I just gave him another one and nothing appeared on screen so I used 2 more, after that it showed the message "It's Growing new feathers" and showed the time until the process completes. (1h 44m)

I assume that every time that the "New feathers" message appears it changes from one colour to another.

(I'll post the results as soon as the time passes.)

Where would be the pioneer fun if SE spoil all the secrets to us?

I understand the frustration but personally I'm glad for once they're giving us these small puzzles as a group to figure out.

For once you can see something else on the forums than just complaining.

I'm so excited that it dyes the entire chocobo, I don't think I'll mind feeding my chocobo for a few weeks (or months if they make it scale or something).

I did 1x Mamook Pear, but after seeing the posts on color/feed results, I followed up and fed it 3x Xelaphol Apples, in an attempt to see a change more towards red, 4 hours and counting ><!
