Grow a Garden New Feed Pets Event Update Leaks, Event Explanation and More!
The latest Grow a Garden update has been fully leaked, and the information coming out has sparked a lot of discussion among players. The upcoming “Feed a Pet” update reveals not only how the event will work, but also confirms a Season Pass delay, hints at limited DLC pets, and raises questions about the future direction of the game under its new leadership. Below is a complete and clear breakdown of everything that has been leaked so far. Also check out our Animals Tier List and Grow a Garden Codes!
Big Changes in Development Direction
Before talking about the update itself, it is important to understand what is happening behind the scenes. Grow a Garden is now being led again by its original creator, known as DevName David, Adrian, or BMW Lux. The previous development team has stepped away, leaving one main leader and a more focused team in charge.
This change has made many players cautious but also slightly hopeful. With less internal conflict, future updates could improve over time. However, the current leaked update does not fully convince players yet.
Feed a Pet Event Explained
The Feed a Pet update is a limited-time event with very simple mechanics. A large egg will appear on a special platform in the game. Every 10 minutes, the egg breaks and players can compete to obtain the pet inside.
One unclear mechanic mentioned by leakers is the ability to steal items from other players while the timer is running, though how this works is still not fully explained.
The biggest disappointment comes from the rewards. According to the leaks:
- Only eggs from the normal Egg Shop can appear
- The rarest possible pets are Tiger and Dragonfly
- No new pets, seeds, or gear are included
This makes the event feel unrewarding, especially for long-time players who already own these pets.
Seasons Pass Officially Delayed
One of the most frustrating parts of the leak is the Season Pass delay. Instead of resetting as expected, the current Season Pass has been extended by another 30 days.
Many players believed leaked pets and unreleased seeds were being saved for the new Season Pass. Pets like the Diamond Dragonfly were widely expected to appear there. With this delay, it now seems those rewards may not arrive anytime soon, or may not even be part of the Season Pass at all.
DLC Plushies and Limited DLC Pets
The delay has also shifted attention to upcoming Grow a Garden toys and plushies. These physical items are expected to come with DLC codes that unlock exclusive pets. Some key points from the leaks:
- Certain leaked pets may be DLC-only rewards
- Fire Bee is likely part of a DLC set
- Some toy boxes mention a “Prismatic Pet DLC”
- Only two Prismatic pets were leaked: Giant Scorpion and Blue Whale
This strongly suggests at least one Prismatic pet will be locked behind paid DLC, which has caused concern among free-to-play players.
Why the Update Feels Underwhelming
Compared to past updates, the Feed a Pet event has a very short description and minimal content. There are no new items to grind for, no exclusive limited pets, and no new gameplay systems beyond waiting for an egg to hatch.
Many players believe this system would work better as a permanent background feature rather than a main event. For example, a random pet hatching every 10 minutes as part of the core game could be fun, especially if limited or rare pets had a small chance to appear.
Can the Update Still Be Improved?
Despite the negative reaction, this update could still be fixed easily before or after release. Simple changes could make it far more enjoyable, such as:
- Adding limited eggs or event-only pets
- Allowing rare past event pets to spawn
- Giving players a reason to actively compete
If these adjustments are made, the Feed a Pet update could turn into something worth playing rather than an event most players ignore.
The full leak of the Feed a Pet update shows a game at a crossroads. While the development team situation has stabilized, the content itself feels rushed and lacking. The Season Pass delay and possible paywalled DLC pets only add to player frustration.
That said, this moment is critical. If feedback is taken seriously and future updates improve, Grow a Garden still has a chance to recover. If not, many players may start walking away. The next update will likely decide whether the game moves forward or continues to lose momentum.
