The Gestation Period Calculator helps you track animal pregnancy progress by computing the days remaining, weeks remaining, percentage of gestation completed, and the current trimester. This tool works for any species: simply enter the total gestation period in days and how many days the animal has been pregnant.
Common gestation periods include dogs (63 days), cats (65 days), horses (340 days), cows (283 days), pigs (114 days), sheep (150 days), and elephants (660 days). Whether you are a breeder, veterinarian, or pet owner, this calculator helps you plan for the expected birth date and monitor progress throughout pregnancy.
The calculator performs straightforward arithmetic based on your inputs:
The trimester calculation divides gestation into three equal phases, which is a standard clinical approach used in both human and veterinary medicine to track developmental milestones.
Inputs
Results
A dog at 30 days of a 63-day gestation is about 48% through, in the second third of pregnancy.
Inputs
Results
A horse at day 250 of 340 has about 13 weeks remaining and is in the final third of gestation.
Common gestation periods include: dogs 58-68 days (average 63), cats 58-72 days (average 65), horses 320-370 days (average 340), cattle 279-292 days (average 283), pigs 112-120 days (average 114), sheep 144-155 days (average 150), goats 145-155 days (average 150), rabbits 28-35 days (average 31), and elephants 620-680 days (average 660).
Gestation length varies between individual animals even within the same species. Factors including breed, age, litter size, nutrition, and environmental conditions can shift the actual birth date by several days. This calculator gives the average expected date; your veterinarian can provide more precise estimates using ultrasound and other diagnostics.
Dividing gestation into three phases helps organize prenatal care. In most mammals, the first third involves embryo implantation and early organ formation, the second third is a period of rapid fetal growth, and the final third is when the fetus gains most of its birth weight and organs mature for life outside the womb. Nutritional and veterinary needs differ in each phase.
