Obtaining

I just got 1 Lard while fishing; and Cinnamon while constructing. I think the lists are wrong; or perhaps unique to player. Emptylord (talk) 03:32, September 6, 2013 (UTC)

I've since obtained 2 Cinnamon from fishing (total of 3) and 1 more Lard from fishing (total of 2). Unless hauling up boots and gloves grants a different type of experience. Emptylord (talk) 04:02, September 6, 2013 (UTC)

Do you get agility experience from barbarian fishing in Catherby? I'm getting strength experience, but that isn't on any of the lists for chin food.Emptylord (talk) 04:04, September 6, 2013 (UTC)

seems more likely to obtain the listed food type in the skills listed but possible to gain any of the three.

barbarian barehanded fishing is strength and fishing xp.

gp per feeding formula

for those more skilled in math

small amount of gp from the baby stage each time you feed it with the neutral or loved food type.

2573 total lvl

loved food gives 56973gp

neutral food gives 45579gp

hated food gives 0gp

young stage says will give a medium amount, adult a large amount.74.199.78.216 04:34, September 6, 2013 (UTC)

I think it's Total/Skill level based as well... . . . _Yours, Enquidou ^Talk . . 20:06, September 6, 2013 (UTC)

Total level 2447, baby chinchompa, loved food: 48961 gp. IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 17:59, September 7, 2013 (UTC)

Total level 2449, baby chinchompa, loved food: 48961 gp; yes, unchanged. IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 05:28, September 8, 2013 (UTC)

Total level 2452, baby chinchompa, loved food: 48961 gp; yes, still unchanged. IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 18:10, September 8, 2013 (UTC)

The gp values in the table for baby stage loved food isnt accurate.  —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.173.107.23 (talk) on 23:10, September 7, 2013.

It does seem to be total level based 124.186.109.14 02:35, September 8, 2013 (UTC)

Keeping it

Is there any way i can keep my chinchompa with me?? I mean without having it to explode? Demigod 001 (talk) 18:49, September 6, 2013 (UTC) 

Doubtful, as Jagex said themselves they would vanish afterwards... IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 18:59, September 6, 2013 (UTC)

It depends: for the entire duration of this stupid Squeal event, it is easy to keep your chinchompa without having it explode; simply do not feed it. This chinchompa will not run away at 100% hunger, it is not like other pets that will run away if you don't feed them. (Once this stupid Squeal event is over though, all golden chinchompas will indeed vanish.) 96.53.232.229 20:07, September 6, 2013 (UTC)

Ftr, only cats run away at 100% Hunger... IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 03:49, September 7, 2013 (UTC)

Also... you can feed it with a POH pet feeder: hunger will go away, but it will not grow. Maybe you can even place it in a POH pet house. . . . _Yours, Enquidou ^Talk . . 10:20, September 7, 2013 (UTC)

Food liking

Just fed my chin, and it said: "Your chinchompa eats 5 curried lard nuggets without complaint.", I assume this is the "Tolerate" option in the table? IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 06:08, September 7, 2013 (UTC)

Correct. The dislike and love options are more obvious. Nothing special here. (talk) 07:53, September 8, 2013 (UTC)

Money rewards are not correct

http://puu.sh/4msBx.jpg 92.108.180.252 20:23, September 8, 2013 (UTC)

We're still trying to get the ranges correct. If you get something out of bounds, please edit the bounds to reflect it. MolMan 20:25, September 8, 2013 (UTC)

Food Liking

Will the chinchompa always like the same food throughout the other stages? Just wondering if I should try to stock up on the one it likes or if it will change.. 108.181.80.247 23:48, September 8, 2013 (UTC)

Mine just grew from baby to young, and still liked caffeine as it did before. IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 18:15, September 9, 2013 (UTC)

Money amount for baby chin

Why does baby chin only give me like 9k for its favorite food? 76.18.160.47 23:53, September 8, 2013 (UTC)

The amount of coins you get depends on your total level. IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 05:39, September 9, 2013 (UTC)

Trivia

Does anyone know where the trivia information re. the name flopsy/avatar came from? I am curious... I assumed that since both Flopsy and Peter are available, that they were in reference to Peter Rabbit. And it could just be a coincedence. I was just wondering if this nugget of trivia came from Jagex, or was just someone speculating. :) 85.171.177.100 11:27, September 9, 2013 (UTC)

The trouble with trivia is it is often very subjective. There are rare cases where a homage is directly confirmed by the creator, but usually all we have to go on is strong correlation; this creates situations where something that one person thinks is an obvious homage is deemed unlikely by another. For example my linking of the name "Boomer" to the bloated, exploding zombie in the game "Left 4 Dead" was, as far as I could see it, such a parallel on so many levels that I thought it worth including. Someone else didn't, and deleted it. There's a little "war" going on where someone keeps adding a name because it appeared in "Finding Nemo" once, and someone else thinks that isn't relevant and removes it. One universal constant in this Wiki, it seems, is that for every piece of trivia mentioned, there is at least one person who finds it to some degree objectionable enough to want it gone.

When it grows

My baby chinchompa just grew into a young one, and gave me 391,693 coins and 20 notes adamant bars (at total level 2462). I fed it its favourite food, but the chat box didn't mention that as it does otherwise. IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 17:45, September 9, 2013 (UTC)

Young => Adult chinchompa (using favourite food) at total level 2462 = 10 Dragon bones and 783,385 coins. IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 17:22, September 10, 2013 (UTC)

Adult => BANG (using favourite food) at total level 2462 = 3 Uncut dragonstones, 10 Dragon bones, 6 Uncut diamonds and 2,271,817 coins (and the grave stone). IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 14:05, September 12, 2013 (UTC)

Multiple Golden chinchompas

My first chinchompa exploded, and I received a second one from the Squeal of Fortune. Its favourite food is the same as that of my previous one, which is Curried lard nuggets. It may be that all chinchompas for one player like the same kind of food. Jamamon (talk) 20:16, September 12, 2013 (UTC)

Can confirm that's not true. I'm on my third chinchompa and each have liked a different food :( D305 (talk) 20:29, September 12, 2013 (UTC)

Oh, thanks. Jamamon (talk) 20:49, September 12, 2013 (UTC)

Strangely though, I just got my third chinchompa and it likes the same food as the last two. Jamamon (talk) 20:58, September 12, 2013 (UTC)

The chance that your second one likes the same food is 1 in 3. The chance that your second and third do, is 1 in 9. That's not entirely unlikely, then. Magma2050 ^{T C E} 21:17, September 12, 2013 (UTC)

Art for the Golden Chinchompa?

I saw this banner on the RuneScape page and was wondering why none of the official art has been posted to the wiki.99.120.154.125 00:19, September 16, 2013 (UTC)

We have an editor who dutifully uploads all of the main page banners and adds them to this page I am linking. AnselaJonla 00:29, September 16, 2013 (UTC)

Neat, I found another version here!99.120.154.125 00:43, September 16, 2013 (UTC)

Non Explodeable Chinchompa?

Should the nonexplodeable chinchompa be added to this page in another switchbox or have it's own page? From whatthe update says, it's identical to the adult chinchompa but doesn't explode. 04ismailjj6 (talk) 15:55, October 2, 2013 (UTC)
