Choco Food

[Stouter]

Just curious as to what all the rumors are about choco food. I heard someone say that Cupid worms raise their affection for you, and have noticed that Azouph greens get gobbled down in one gulp (I assume that's a good thing) and that one Azouph took my choco from starving to almost full.

Anyone got anything else?

I've noticed Tokopekko Wildgrass won't heal my chocobo chick, but that I have to use Paste instead (easy to get if you have the ingredients, and easy to HQ if you have access to a chef). After feeding my chocobo, the NPC would say "I hope it gets better soon" only after using Paste, and both times this happened the next day it would be fully healed.

Also, when my chocobo was "in extremely good condition" and "very receptive" it ate food (Carrot Paste) in one gulp. I don't know if this has a bonus effect or not - Fuyu is still at "poor" in all stats. ; ;

Someone else posted http://innercirclelinkshell.com/forums/index.php?topic=157.new#new as a resource for food data. It was on this board, I think... not sure who (just bookmarked it).

I've had 3 illnesses for my 2 chocos, fed one Toko grass and enough food that they were no longer hungry, all 3 times they were over the illness the next day.

Tokopekko doesn't count as food, though. You have to feed it normally as well as using it. Vomp Carrots raise Stength and Endurance, and the other carrots(not San d'Orian) raise Receptivity and whatever the other mental stat is. This is stated by the Chocoguys.

You don't have to use the paste, I've fed mine plain toko grass two times now and it got better but took until the next day to state that. Also, one thing that bugs me... both times my choco was sick it said something about it being very perky then next line, your bird is sick, wtf? =P

Zegham carrots raise mental attributes. Also, wiki says that the Azouph greens simply sastify hunger and in the description it states it's favored among chocobos, my guess why it gobbles it down so quickly. Cupid worms are supposed to raise it's lvl of affection.

just look for an NPc next to choco Breader. It will tell you what the food effect are. From what I know

Vomp carrot = Strenght and stamina
All kind of green = affection
Tokepo = sickness

Also check or feed your choco once a day after 00:00 JP time. So when your choco is sick give it one tokepo grass and wait for next JP day. At least it works for me that way.
For the food I gardened some, but the market is over flooded for now.

Anything on the Parasite Worms...

All I have seen on them is they increase bound of affection but if I look to the price there may be somehting else I don't know about it.
They also are harder to garden so that may explain the price.

Basicly

toke Grass easy to garden
Vomp Carrot you have less than toke
Parasite worm you have less than vomp carrots

Wrong. It works sort of like ENM timers, it's based of 24 Hours from when you traded your egg.

So if i feed it Vomp Carrots, will his strength go up from 'poor'? I walk him three times a day, and hes set on 'Take a walk around town' but hes still 'poor' for everything, except affection, which is as high as I think it can get (regards me as a parent).

I had been feeding him Vegetable Paste, hoping that green veggies will make him green, based off nothing, I just thought it might work. I'll try these carrots and see whats up.

I think about vomp carrots it is a factor that can make his strenght up, for now as your choco is still a baby he can't have strenght. Maybe vomp will help to have the chocobo in better shape when you start the tiring plans. I think it is said vomp is good for stamina and Strenght.

Something tells me everyones initial chocobo is going to be shitty. And the only way to get a great chocobo is through many breeding cycles.

Not everyone has enough time to constantly repeat cycles. That is why we try our hardest to get as much right as possible.

Well, atleast it doesn't require too much time, atleast from an activity stand point. Or too much gil, assuming you grow food/grass. While it would take a while to get a really good chocobo, the amount of work required is very slim.
