Can sheeps display on screen loacked?

No, this is not possible in Windows.
Applications does not have any access on a locked screen for security reasons. An application is able to show a notification icon on the lock screen, but not to be executed or to show something itself (only over a windows notification message)

But some screensavers did   it.

@nosiyBUGS as a IT admin of 20 years I can tell you that the lock screen is very much hands off to developers. You are correct that technically a screensaver would be allowed to display over the lock screen but that would be a totally different thing. It wouldn't have the virtual physics that the main pet has. It would just be effectively a animated video loop of sorts that has no overlap with the code of this project.

Which means   it   will cause   security leaks or   immoral  privacy   offend

You can create a screen saver with this steps:

• download the portable version (not the one from the store)
• rename the exe (or copy the file) to DesktopPet.scr
• copy your new *.scr file to C:\Windows\SysWOW64
• open your screensaver settings and select "DesktopPet"

But it doesn't start over the lock screen.
