I guess Soot Black and Snow White are the mainstream colors for Chocobos now?

I wouldn't say mainstream. Despite many of the people on the forums having 'em or aiming for them, I've seen very few in game. At least so far. I think the majority of the playerbase probably still lacks either the funds or time and dedication. I expect when the food drops further in price more will pop up though.

Here's my Soot Black journal. Hopefully this data can be of some help!

Notes:
- Each feeding is approximately 6-8 hours apart.
- I messed up on Feeding #5 by accidentally feeding it the wrong fruit. But luckily, I was able to go back.
- After the 5th feeding, I would stop feeding a particular fruit after I got a single "new feathers" message for it before moving on to the next.
