By reporting to the Dirac wave-packet prescription where it is formally assumed the {\em fermionic} nature of the particles, we shall demonstrate that chiral oscillations implicitly aggregated to the interference between positive and negative frequency components of mass-eigenstate wave-packets introduce some small modifications to the standard neutrino flavor conversion formula. Assuming the correspondent spinorial solutions of a ``modified'' Dirac equation, we are specifically interested in quantifying flavor coupled with chiral oscillations for a {\em fermionic} Dirac-{\em type} particle (neutrino) non-minimally coupling with an external magnetic field {\boldmath$B$}. The viability of the intermediate wave-packet treatment becomes clear when we assume {\boldmath$B$} orthogonal/parallel to the direction of the propagating particle.
