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.

I'm not 100% about the numbers but I'm pretty sure I ended up feeding it 4 berries and 2 val fruit

OK, so your current RGB value is around Red 29, Green 17, Blue 133 you need Red+34, Green+30 and Blue-70 to get to Grape Purple. Which I work out as 8 Apples, 7 pears and 13 Pineapples. Your red and green are quite low so I would start out with a bunch of pineapples probably 5, to push your red and green up, then alternate through them all (1 of each type).

Hope this works out for you, don't give up!

So following your advice, I fed him 5 pineapples and after throwin' in an apple. He developed new feathers so I figured I should stop since idk if you can still influence his color after its already been stated he's changing color. After the 6 hour period he turned back to Regal Purple xD
