World name: cactuar
Character name: filex anima
NPC name: n/a
Monster name: n/a
Class/Level: n/a
Party or solo: n/a

Steps:
1. Train chocobo with a nive 9 full krakka root in in the stable
2. Chocobo don't gain experiencie.
3. Thinking it was necessary to use an Thavnairian_Onion to level 10, buy one in 1M.
4. Train again 1 hour later and error message (No warning for this again).
5. Kill a monster and then if you went up to level 10.

I received no warning that my chocobo would gain experience before use both items and gil lost by this omission.

Have you tried taking it outside and killing a mob with it?

Try killing a mob first, I thought I had a bug with my choco too (from lv 4 to 5), but when I brought it out and let it gain a few exp it leveled up just fine

They do not level up in the stables as said above pre level 10, you need to take them out and kill something. At and post level 10 you feed the onion only when they are at capped out xp and they are in the stable to break cap.

That's what I did, but could not spend all krakka root without a notice had not gain experience.

In this case, should warn about this.

they are making changes to feeding a T onion... something about a warning before feeding. However the fact that you misunderstood the cap to be a 9 and not 10 is kinda your mess up. Take your chocobo out more often and it wouldn't have looked like rank 9 was the cap (i'm assuming it capped because all you do is keep it in the stable and train it) needs to be in the field to rank up.

One...

While the implementation period has not yet been finalized, we plan on making it so you can confirm how much experience points your companion has from the chocobo stable menu.

Two...

The dev. team is looking into making it so you'll be able to confirm all stabled chocobo exp from the stable menu.

Three...

As a quality of life adjustment, in patch 2.38 we’ll be making a change so that you will receive a warning message if you try and feed a Thavnairian onion to a chocobo that does not meet the requirements to increase their rank cap.

Three dev posts about them already working on it. Ah ah ah!

I lost a 1M, What happened to them as many as the same and not have said anything in the forum?

It does tell you when training will not give you any XP before you feed the item now, FYI. There's an extra confirmation box.
