But its also clear that if you give it too much affection it drain energy..

Basically your kid becomes a spoiled brat who doesn't want to do anything.

Thats when you spank it this has some amusement potential...

I think if you visit and do something with it once a day or once every few days, it ought to work out fine.

I wouldn't doubt it would be in an egg for 10 days, chick for 10 days, juvenile for 10 days, and finally you can slap a saddle on its back and drive it into the ground.

Personally I predict something more like 5 or 7 days egg, chick 10 or 12, juvenile 11-15. Or maybe it could vary depending on how it's raised, although that would be harder to predict.

Mine just hatched, took me 4 days after trade. It was a little female chocobo. :3

[JoOeetheplatypuS]

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww Shizzy has a choccy

[shinobi_tabi]

awesome, my day 4 should be over later today :D

[Krandor]

Got a yellow one, girl.

Named it Ninja Avenger :X

[deakka]

I want a yellow chocobo who thinks he's black ; ;

[Aodh]

Mine should hatch tonight then !! How do you feed it? And did new things unlock on the care schedule? (More than Basic Care)

[Khamsin]

Anyone's chocobo a different color than yellow, yet?

[Gulkeeva]

They don't get coloring till 2nd? stage of development when they are a bit bigger (according to altena viewer)

Needs more inbreeding

[Krandor]

Still only basic care available, but you have the option to take your choco for a walk and name it now.

Posting this as a link incase people don't it "spoiled" for them

Edit: Apparently there are more options now, I just looked at the list and it just said Basic Care, but I guess you now have the option to have it listen to music, go for walks, and rest. This is at least what someone was telling me in LS chat before I logged out.

Won't first generation eggs (obtained from quest/store/ISNM) also produce colored chocobos? Or is it reasonable to think that they'll all be yellow until people start breeding them?

[Kyreth]

I'm betting crossbreeding may make fancy (non-yellow) chocobos more likely to happen, but any egg may have the "genetics" to produce one. So we'll have a chance of seeing a bird fledge black sometime in the next month or so, and certainly the other colors. I want a green Jennet!

4 days from incubation start to hatching seems to be the norm, give or take a few realtime hours.

[Raylinn]

I checked my egg at lunch, still hadn't hatched, was just before 4 day mark. Im hoping it'll be hatched by the time I finish work. I've been getting really hungry for eggs lately.

[Glikon]

My little birdey hatched on day four. Has anyone started doing experiments with which kinda of egg might produce which chocobo? I know they say it is completly random, but the slightly warm, bit warm, and wrm to the touch might all 3 produce the 1st generation of different colors. Just thought Id ask.

[miokomioko]

Last I checked all chocobos are born yellow and their feathers don't obtain color variations until they are in the "teen" stage (or whatever you want to call it).

-sidenote- Mine hatched, got named, and I took it on 2 walks in East Sarutabaruta. On the first walk, it met another chick named Spring and made friends. Second walk, nothing happened.

[camdon]

So now that chocobos are hatching, only one question remains:

When will the FFXI chocobo-on-chocobo hentai start to come?
