Greens are sold from NPC near Chocobo Stables. They are pretty cheap.

Winbrian beat me to it!

Greens are sold by the vendor NPCs at the stables, and I think you can vendor by carrots and some of the other food listed :).

Well after 36 hours I still just have an egg, but it wiggles when I check it :D. I'm hoping for one of the little green chocobos, but mainly I'm just excited about the chocobo whistle :thumb:.

Heh I guess that qualifies as enough of a reason to get into this game.

Mine will probably be out tommorow.

I still need to buy one...I couldn't be bothered finiding the NPC when I was in the day before yesterday. I'll get one today after fishing. Honest :blank:

Since I didn't manage to get online for fishing I guess I'll change that to 'this evening' when everyone has gone. I hate it when family come over, all plans go down the drain :(

hehe, just about. I never noticed actually. :lol:
It was stated in the June 19 Topics that a chocobos appearance would change along with its attributes. Due to an extension of the testing period, these changes will now be implemented in a following version update.
Going by that i don't think we'll see any different coloured chocobos nm what their attributes are, until the next update.
/me wants a black one. :)

Just thought i'd mention, if anyone happened to choose the rest plan for their chocobo by mistake or whatever, your choco may still wake up.

I set my chocobo to rest a couple of days ago but as soon as i heard about the rest bug i went and changed his schedule to basic care in the hopes that it would cancel it. The next day i logged on to find my chocobo asleep, however when i checked him today he's wide awake again and not dead afterall. :D
