Chocobo Dye Experimentation

[AttacKat]

I know about chocobo Calculator but if anyone can tell me how i split the fruits and if i must wait to see the message that it's going to change feathers or i just give him fruits splitted like Calculater says??

Instructions are all written in Microfeeding: The Way to Chocobo Color Dyeing.

Guys i want to ask something for Chocobo Colour Calculator..When we put the current color and we choose for the desired color, the calculator says : ''Feed the following to change to your desired colour'' but have a note that says : ''Note: It is recommended to alternate your fruits when feeding, so that you do not max out your RGB values by feeding all of the same type of fruit at once. Easiest way to do this is split the right amount of fruits up in your inventory and feed small amounts of each type until you have ran out.'' So i just split the fruits and give it in smaller amounts until i run out or i split it in smaller amounds and if the message appear that says that the feathers will change in 6 hours i stop and wait for 6 hours and then i continue with feeding until the next message appear's again that says that the feathers will change in 6 hours so i stop again wait again 6 hours and im doing all this until i run out??Anyone know pls??

you can read about how to split fruits here. Feed all of them and then wait 6 hours.

My FC mate was in this situation and pineapples fixed it, although I am not sure if it took one step (single proc) or more.

So far I have fed my bird nothing but berries and he is currently at Gobbue Brown. I have over fed once, meaning I fed till i got the "feathers" message twice. I fed him 1 berry this morning before coming into work. If, from what I have read and researched here is on track, I should see Lavender when I get home. Then one more feed to get Raptor Blue, the color I am after. However it seems that there is a chance to go from Lavender to Gloom Purple, which I do not want. Fingers are crossed. I will update with results.

K. So I got my raptor blue this morning. When I got home he turned lavender. Feed him till I got the feathers message then went to sleep. Checked on him this morning and bam! Raptor Blue.

I feed him only berries and only till I got the feathers message, except once. Got feathery message twice.

Hope that helps


UPDATE: I meant to get this up earlier but just didn't have time. This is my bird!

Question that may have been answered, but screw 78 pages of text.

If you change your gc, does your chocobo color reset?

I found this site: http://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Chocobo_Colors - and was aiming for slate grey. I procured the 21 berries, 7 apples, and 7 pears and one by one, shoved them down the hatch.

I ended up with Gloom Purple. How do I get on track back to grey? More apples and pears?
