DBIx::Class does nothing like that automagically, the user must load the
InflateColumn::DateTime component in order for this behaviour to occur.

from the POD:

This module figures out the type of DateTime::Format::* class to
inflate/deflate with based on the type of DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::*
that you are using. 


Before this (optional) component existed, you had to do it completely
manually (as you can still do):

__PACKAGE__->inflate_column('colname', {
    inflate => sub { DateTime::Format::Pg->parse_datetime(shift); },
    deflate => sub { DateTime::Format::Pg->format_datetime(shift); },
});
