Golden chinchompa (Squeal of Fortune)

A Golden chinchompa can be won on the Squeal of Fortune from 6 to 16 September 2013. It gives the player a number of coins for raising. They may be converted to 500 coins if won. After the 16th of September, the chinchompa disappears. However, Jagex stated that it may be possible to obtain (in some way) a golden chinchompa pet in the future.

A new in-game message appears upon login: ''1) Visit the Squeal of Fortune. 2) Win a golden chinchompa. 3) Lovingly raise it. 4) ???? 5) Profit.''

Food
There are three kinds of chinchompa food. Each individual chinchompa has a favourite type out of the following three:
 * [[File:Dried chillies.png]] Dried chillies
 * [[File:Curried lard nuggets.png]] Curried lard nuggets
 * [[File:Pure caffeine.png]] Pure caffeine

Food can be won on the Squeal of Fortune in a Food bag or obtained while skilling. Food can be traded for other food types only. Players must wait until the chinchompa has reached a hunger percentage of 100% before they are able to feed the creature. A text message displays:

A thaumic chronometer (which can also be won on the Squeal) makes a golden chinchompa instantly hungry, and it remains that way until fed 10 times (this carries over through growth stages). To check your chinchompa's hunger percentage or size percentage, right click on the summoning icon on your action bar, and then select the "Follower Details" option, the hunger percentage and size percentages should be displayed below the icon and name of your chinchompa. The hunger percentages grows 6.66% every 2 minutes and takes 30 minutes to reach 100%.

The higher your total skill level, the greater the amount of coins recieved are.

Baby chinchompas eat five of a single food type at a time, young chinchompas eat ten of a single food at once, and adult chinchompas consume 25 of one food each time.

As you feed your baby chinchompa the type of food it likes the most, a text message appears saying: Your chinchompa guzzles down 5 [type of food] happily - It must really like them! Directly followed by a message saying: [number of coins] coins have been added to your money pouch.

While you can reduce the Chinchompa's hunger by feeding it with your POH pet feeder, it does not grow if you choose to do so.

A player can raise and explode a maximum of 3 chinchompas over the course of the event, although only one can be raised at a time. Once the player has exploded 3 chinchompas, no further chinchompas, chinchompa food, or chronometers appear on the Squeal of Fortune. Naturally, this means any extra chinchompa food or chronometers that the player possesses after the third chinchompa explodes is wasted.

Rewards on Explosion
After the Golden Chinchompa finally explodes, you will be rewarded with 2 to 3 items from the below table (based on your total level), a large amount of coins (up to 4.5m with a total level of 2595) and a Chinchompa gravestone that can be placed in the garden of your player owned house or in the grass outside.

One of the items in the table below is also received when your baby golden chinchompa grows into a young chinchompa, and then again when it grows into an adult.

Names
The chinchompa can be named one of the following:

Trivia

 * The login message is a reference to the South Park derived meme widely used to satirise the business plans of the dot.com bubble companies which had no discernible monetisation phase.
 * Golden chinchompas may not be fed to a Baby Troll. Attempting to do so prompts the dialogue: Golden chinchompas are far too rare to feed to a troll.
 * There is currently a glitch while using a Monkey Greegree, if you feed your chinchompa the money it gives is placed in your inventory and you'll get a message saying your Money Pouch is full, even if it isn't.
 * There is still an unfixed bug/glitch risk in which if your golden chinchompa is in inventory, it will disappear forever if you log back in except the food. There is no confirmation this will be fixed, just left as it is for those who lost it even after the removal from the Squeal of Fortune.
