Claiming and Placing Your Chubby Chipmunk

Right off the bat, the star of this update is the Chubby Chipmunk—a free pet that's your ticket to a world of goodies. Head to the event hub and snag yours without delay; it's a straightforward claim right in the interface. Picture a plump little furball ready to waddle into action, though yours starts slimmer and grows from there. Pro tip: Treat this pet like garden gold—don't accidentally sell or delete it, as it'll be your main engine for progress.

Once claimed, plop it straight into your garden plot. This isn't just for show; the chipmunk kicks off its core routine immediately. Depending on its age and current weight, it'll munch on a random fruit every few minutes (the cooldown scales with those factors—younger or lighter ones eat more often). Each bite packs on a bit of weight, approximately 0.050 kg per fruit, although that varies as well. Heads up: It bypasses any "favorited" fruits, so lock in your prized produce beforehand to avoid unwanted nibbles. After feasting, it drops an acorn somewhere in your space—more on collecting those in a sec. This eating spree is the heartbeat of the event, so keep your garden stocked with easy-to-spare fruits to fuel the gains.

The Dual Abilities: Side Quest and Main Quest Breakdown

Your chipmunk packs two tricks up its sleeve, blending solo fun with event progression. The side hustle? Those acorns it spits out post-meal. These shiny collectibles pop up scattered around your garden (much like ferry drops from past events), and grabbing one nets a random perk. Think handy items like master sprinklers for faster growth, handy reclaimers to recycle plots, or even the shiny new nutty chest we'll geek out over later. It's low-pressure loot—perfect for casual play while tending other tasks.

The real meat, though, is the main quest: Bulk up that chipmunk to a whopping 50 kg. Every gram counts toward unlocking tiered rewards, with milestones triggering fresh prizes as you climb. It's straightforward to gain weight from those fruit feasts, but smart placement and boosts make it fly by. Hit caps like 1.25 kg for a naughty chest packed with surprises, scaling up through the ranks. By 50 kg, you're maxed out—no more gains until a reset (details below)—but the haul along the way includes everything from seeds to pets. Random drops keep it exciting, so you might snag multiples of the same goodie or rare gems early.

Rewards Roadmap: Milestones and the Coveted Nutty Chest

As your chipmunk balloons, the payoff escalates. Early thresholds dish out chests and tools; mid-game brings pets and seeds; the finale caps with the pecan seed (a testing quirk hid it at first, but it's there). Standouts include the nutty chest, the event's crown jewel, brimming with rarities. Crack one open, and you're rolling the dice on:

• Hazelnut seed: A solid grower fetching 40,000–43,000 shekels per harvest.

• Farmer Chipmunk pet: Speeds nutty plants by 1.5x—niche but handy for event synergy.

• Pimon seed: Yields fruits worth 54,000–80,000 shekels, depending on size.

• Idle Chipmunk pet: A chill vibe-master (more below).

• Acorn seed: The 1% lottery ticket, base value around 111,000 shekels, skyrocketing to millions with mutations like Friendbound (70x multiplier).

• Chinchilla pet: An absolute game-changer we'll unpack soon.

Beyond the chest, expect extras like energy chews (instant pet ability refreshes—pair with a space squirrel for spam-city boosts) and cosmetics such as the acorn mirror or rug for that cozy aesthetic touch.

Spotlight on New Pets: Abilities and Why They Matter

This update stuffs your stable with fresh faces, each with quirks that slot into different playstyles. Let's run through them:

• Farmer Chipmunk: As mentioned, it turbocharges nutty plant growth by 1.5x. Not a size booster, so it's event-specific—great for churning out submissions but skippable otherwise.

• Idle Chipmunk: Every 12 minutes, it belts out a 9-second tune that pumps 1.51% hunger restoration per second to all garden pets. Crunch the numbers: That's roughly 13% total refill. Ideal for overnight AFK aging sessions; stack eight for moth-level efficiency without the fuss.

• Hyrax: Unlocked around 30 kg, this one's a fruit alchemist. Every 5 minutes, it gobbles a non-favorited fruit and spits out a Fisher Berry seed (single-harvest, ~20,000 shekels). Easy to farm in bulk, but only worth it if you're seed-hunting; otherwise, it's a polite pass.

• Fortune Squirrel: A golden glow-up from the classic squirrel. Every 7 minutes, 17% shot at slapping a Jackpot mutation on fruits (50x cash multiplier). Way better odds than the old golden goose's 1%—a must for money grinders.

• Chinchilla: The hype is real. Every 30 minutes, it dust-bathes with another pet, triggering that buddy's ability three times back-to-back. Slap it on a raccoon or T-Rex for broken-level output. Devs might tweak it, but right now? Pure chaos in the best way.

The Fortune Squirrel isn't entirely new (it lurks in passes too), but this event spotlights it fresh.

Nutty Fever: The Community Boost You Can't Miss

Don't sleep on Nutty Fever—a communal push that amps the whole event. Chat with the central NPC, then harvest and submit fruits to fill a shared progress bar. Rarity rules: Commons net 1 point, up to transcendentals at 8 points each. Transcendents are rare beasts, so spam commons like tomatoes for steady gains—1,500 points is doable solo, a breeze with squad mates.

Once the bar fills (think harvest event vibes), Nutty mode activates: Your chipmunk goes berserk, halving its cooldown to every 30 seconds. That's double the eats, double the weight, double the speed to rewards. It's a no-brainer—rally your friends and flood that bar for event-ending acceleration.

New Seeds: Harvest Values and Grow Tips

Seeds are the update's green-thumb gems, with values pulled from testing (live numbers may shift slightly). All are freebies via milestones or chests—no upfront cost, just time invested.

• Acorn Squash (6 kg unlock): Compact grower, ~14,000 shekels per fruit. Entry-level but reliable for quick flips.

• Fern Tail (25 kg): Surprisingly massive without sprinklers, ~1,800 shekels. Echoes older plants—spot the twin if you can!

• Hazelnut (35% chest chance): Steady 40,000–43,000 shekels. The chest's workhorse.

• Pimon: Variable sizing, 54,000–80,000 shekels. Versatile for mid-tier sales.

• Pecan (50 kg finale): Understated look, but 90,000–95,000 shekels per nut. Worth the wait as your capstone prize.

• Acorn (1% chest): Tree-like stunner, base 100,000–150,000 shekels. Mutations turn it legendary—7.78 million with Friendbound.

Stock fruits liberally, use non-favored for chipmunk feeds, and watch these multiply your shekels.

Passive Rewards, Cosmetics, and Crafting

Testing tweaks expanded passive acorn drops: Beyond sprinklers, crates, and chests, grab medium toys/treats, grand master sprinklers, rainbow fertilizers, and a 0.24% shot at the Pet Shard Nutty. This mutation's a gamble—every 20 minutes, your chipmunk's next ability has 20% odds to double-fire; flop, and it sheds a level. Risky, but the upside for chain abilities? Chef's kiss.

Cosmetics got a fence frenzy in the shop (resets every 4 hours): Bamboo for zen, dark lantern for mood, vine and flower for wild growth, plus fall, light, and ancient oak vibes. Deck out your borders in style.

Crafting fans, meet the Evo Apple: Fuse prior evolution plots for a level 4 evolvable powerhouse. Optional flair, but it rounds out the progression tree nicely.

Reset and Replay: Keeping the Momentum

Topped out at 50 kg? No sweat—fork over 1 trillion shekels or 89 Robux to reset. Your behemoth shrinks back to newbie size, quests refresh, and you're off fattening round two. Infinite loops for endless rewards; just budget those shekels wisely.

FAQs on Chubby Chipmunk Update

1. How often does the Chubby Chipmunk eat fruits?

It varies by age and weight—newer or lighter ones munch every few minutes, scaling up as it grows. Stock non-favorited fruits to keep it rolling.

2. What's the best strategy for Nutty Fever?

Submit high-volume commons like tomatoes for quick points; rarer plants boost scores but slow you down. Team up for faster bar fills and that sweet 30-second cooldown halve.

3. Is the Chinchilla pet worth chasing?

Absolutely—its triple-ability trigger on other pets is overpowered for big hitters like the T-Rex. Prioritize nutty chests for your shot.

4. Can I get the Acorn seed another way besides the chest?

It's a 1% nutty chest pull only—no shortcuts. But base values hit 100k+ shekels, and mutations can 70x that.

5. What happens after 50 kg?

Milestones lock, but reset with shekels or Robux to restart. It's designed for repeats, so plan your economy around multiple runs.
