A7: In FFXIV, Ishgard is the place that breeds and raises chocobos, and they only export the males at the moment. The “Chocobo Forest” In the older FINAL FANTASY series games was made into something a bit newer, and it won’t exactly be like it was in the past.

So now you know. ALL YOUR CHOCOBOS ARE MALES. No exceptions!

There are at least two female chocobos at Bentbranch Meadows.  One even laid an egg.

Your chocobo and be either sex you want it to be, because it's your chocobo. :-P

Well, I mean... you can do that now, sure, but when they add chocobo breeding and all of our company chocobos are revealed to be males and you have to go running into the Chocobo Forest for a female to breed with, you're going to look kind of silly then.

Works for me. Erik bought the chick Fury in Dragonhead IC so it works as he is a male chocobo bought in Ishgard.

Except the one early on in the Gridania storyline, where you have to go chasing after someone who stole her egg... and they did say "at the moment", so it may be that some females were exported previously, maybe prior to the Calamity.

True and also there would be females as blackmarkets happen as do random breeding from said blackmarket chocobo. The lore only states that Ishgard only exports males. As long as you did not IC buy your chocobo from a licensed Ishgardian dealer, then your girl bird doesn't violate lore.

I'm okay with looking silly.  If I based my decisions on what other people think about me, I'd be a basket case at this point.  Tongue
