this is not really an issue, because i think it's hilarious, but i was wondering why Sprig was born in the 60s


it's a unix epoch error. most computers/programs determine time and date by counting the number of seconds since the unix epoch date: january 1, 1970. when the value can't be calculated due to a glitch, it defaults to 0—which, in GMT, would in fact be the unix epoch date. but subeta is based in EST, a few hours behind, so it ends up landing the day before: december 31, 1969.
sometimes when creating a pet, this counter bugs out, which is why some pets have this birthday. i've always really wanted one myself! so, congrats!
that's really cool to know! now i kinda want a special birthday pet lol good luck to both of us!
thanks so much for explaining. i sent you a wishlist item as thanks
pretty sure i got sprig in 2011 when i first joined, but didn't take much notice till now lol

My sweet Onslo has this birthday too! I've always wondered why, thank you for the explanation Frenchi! And thank you for posting, goodboy :) neat!
