What ´s your birthday?

What ´s your birthday?
 
Hi guys, this is a strange question for an English person to be asking, but anyway! Is it acceptable/correct to say, ´What ´s your birthday? � or do you have to say ´When ´s your birthday? �

Lots of people what ´s  your birthday - but when ´s your birthday is more correct.

The usual correct way to say it (in Australia) is:

When ´s your birthday?

What ´s your date of birth?

 Hello
To my mind it is possible to ask a few kinds of questions  but I am a bit surprised that for a native speaker of English the questions seem  a bit ( or more) strange :

When is your birthday ?
When do you celebrate  your birthday ?
What month were you born in ?
What ´s your day of birth?
Personally, I would never ask What ´s your birhtday. It makes no sense to me .
