What Is the New Grow a Garden Update 😱 Feed a Pet Event, Secret Leaks & Codes (Jan 2026)

Introduction: Why Is Everyone Camping the Event Stage?

If you have logged into Roblox this week, you have seen the chaos. The event stage is packed, chat is moving a mile a minute, and everyone is asking the same thing: What is the new Grow a Garden update really about?

I’ve spent the last 48 hours grinding the new Feed a Pet event (Version 1.40.0) so you don’t have to guess. This isn’t just another patch—it’s a complete shift in how we farm. Instead of just planting seeds, we are now fighting for limited-time pets that could change the game’s economy forever.

Plus, I’ve dug into the Grow a Garden update Discord rumors to find out if the “Flame Bee” leak is real or just hype. Let’s dive into the Grow a Garden January 2026 update details.

Quick Answer: What is the New Grow a Garden Update? (Feed a Pet)

The headline feature of Version 1.40.0 is the Feed a Pet Event. This is a server-wide mini-game that rewards active players with free premium pets.

How the Event Actually Works:

1. The Spawn: Every 10–15 minutes, a giant Egg spawns on the event stage.​
2. The Hatch: You have a 10-minute countdown. You must be present when it hits zero.
3. The Reward: If you participate, you get a chance to win any pet from that egg’s pool.
   • Example: If an “Uncommon Egg” spawns, you could unlock the rare Snail (great for mutation buffs) for free.​

My Experience:
I camped the stage for 2 hours yesterday. While I mostly got common pets, I saw two players pull Rares. It is absolutely worth the AFK time if you are Free-to-Play (F2P).

Grow a Garden DLC Leaks: Flame Bee & Diamond Pets

Disclaimer: The following info is based on community leaks and data mining. These features are not officially confirmed by the developers yet.

The community is going crazy over the leaked Grow a Garden DLC content. According to data miners on the Grow a Garden update Discord, we might be seeing physical toys that grant in-game rewards.​

The “Flame Bee” Rumor

Leaks suggest a new Flame Bee pet is coming.

• How to get it: Rumored to be a code reward from real-life Grow a Garden toys.
• Ability: Passive chance to mutate fruit into “Burnt” or “Flaming” variants.​

Diamond Variants

There is also chatter about “Diamond” versions of seeds and pets. If true, these would likely be the highest-tier items in the game, possibly offering massive cooldown reductions.

How to Maximize the Event (Strategy Guide)

Don’t just stand there! Here is how I’m maximizing my gains in the new Feed a Pet update:

1. The “Sweet Tea” Speed Strat

You need to move fast between your farm and the stage.

• Tip: Craft Sweet Tea before the event starts. It gives a massive speed boost.
• Need a recipe? Check my guide on how to make sweet tea in Grow a Garden to outrun the competition.

2. Manage Your Inventory

Nothing hurts more than hatching a Rare pet and losing it because your inventory is full.

• Tip: Clear at least 5 pet slots before the egg hatches.

3. Time Your Crops

Don’t let your farm sit idle while you wait for the egg.

• Tip: Plant quick crops like Carrots or Daisies that finish within the 10-minute window. Use the Grow a Garden Calculator to sync your harvest time perfectly with the hatch timer.

Conclusion: A New Era for Farmers?

So, what is the new Grow a Garden update ultimately? It’s a bold step towards making the game more social and interactive. The Feed a Pet event is a huge win for F2P players who want cool pets without spending Robux.

If the developers deliver on the Grow a Garden DLC rumors (Flame Bee!), 2026 is going to be a massive year for us. My advice? Log in, brew some Sweet Tea, and camp that egg stage before the event ends!

Are you excited for the new pets? Let me know if you get a Rare hatch!
