We consider a random generalisation of the classical Fibonacci substitution. The substitution we consider is defined as the rule mapping $\mathtt{a}\mapsto \mathtt{baa}$ and $\mathtt{b} \mapsto \mathtt{ab}$ with probability $p$ and $\mathtt{b} \mapsto \mathtt{ba}$ with probability $1-p$ for $0<p<1$ and where the random rule is applied each time it acts on a $\mathtt{b}$. We show that the topological entropy of this object is given by the growth rate of the set of inflated random Fibonacci words, and we exactly calculate its value.
