Questions to the Author

What are you ideas on Vomp Carrot versus Carrot Paste in the chick stage of development? The carrot paste cost 3x as much as the vomp carrot in chocobucks and you can also feed at most 2 to the chick. Wouldn't this imply that carrot paste should be valued higher than vomp carrots? --Lord0din69 17:53, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

Though I do find Carrot Paste does give an ever so slight increase to the rate of stat increase rate (approximately 1.5 times faster), I also find the high cost is not worth it. Thus, I highly recommend vomp carrots, unless you have tonnes of cash you're willing to give up, I'd strongly suggest to not use these.

Upon hatching under the Racer plan, how are you able to feed your chick 3 Vomp Carrots? Mine never seems to have an appetite for more than 2 and almost always is neither hungry nor full the next day, and if you overfeed it I read that the food effects don't take place. Just trying to understand your guide better, thanks. --Cerodero 07:02, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

I currently have a chocobo that i got out of ISNM (Shadows of the mind) As of day 9 endurance was the first to level up, and then str. It's day 14? (checked it earlier and can't remember) and both the stats are the same, The first day i fed it Carrot Paste, after that it's been 2x vomp or 2x vomp 1x zegham (did this for 3 days and decided to stop, i wanted to level up discernment.

Often, i have gotten the "high spirits", so far i've gotten it 3x and have yet to do feed it any worm, it also hasn't gotten sick yet either. Hatched it with max affection, walk it 3x daily, and watch over it until the bar is depleted.

Also, im looking for another chocobo on Ramuh that has gallop and try to do the Kamp kweh in hopes of getting it to learn gallop from that.

Any suggestions? -Anesti22 of Ramuh 02-12-2009.

Questions / Discussion Regarding Color

Breeding: color inheritance, results

I've taken my yellow chocobo, LadyLuna, (female) which I've raised from the quested egg with another person's blue chocobo, DreamOne, (male) which he bred with a blue and black chocobo. The stats on the chocobos are LadyLuna (SS,B,F,F), DreamOne(SS,SS,F,F) and neither had any abilities. I went to Upper Jeuno to get the egg and chose the Sports plan. The Sports plan increases the chance that a chick with high endurance will be born. Also, it increases the chance that the male chocobo's traits will be inherited.

So, I got the egg, its warm level was "a little warm to touch".

When it hatched, I've named it right away as LunaDream (female). It had "regard you as its parent" affection rate, and had nothing else special about it. I've raised it on a diet of carrot paste, but messed up a bit because I was feeding it 1 instead of 2 sometimes. Sometimes it gets completely full after one, probably because of newborns. After two days the dominate trait became endurance. I've avoided taking it for too many short walk for the time being because there were theories that it reduces strength. The first stat to level up was endurance, which makes sense because of the sports plan, to "Substandard" (grade E). Next was of course strength to level up. When it reached 'Adolescent' stage it had the stats of (E,E,F,F) and I've kept the affection up all the time at level 8 "regard you as its parent" or higher.

Color of the chocobo, LunaDream, is blue. --Lord0din69 18:42, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

I don't quite know if this is a question, or just statement of fact, and whether or not it is saying that my theory is correct or wrong. I'll ask that anyone who is willing please use the template below to show the stats of their birds, in the hopes of aiding my studies.

I'll use LunaDream as an example afterwards. --Urat 01:41, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

I was just posting results, wasn't saying any theory was right or wrong. --Lord0din69 00:11, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
