Gestation & Incubation Calculator FAQs
Are these gestation dates exact?
No. All dates are estimates based on species-wide averages. Individual animals, breeds, and environmental factors can cause births or hatches to occur earlier or later.
Why does the calculator show an early and late window?
Most animals do not deliver or hatch on an exact day. The window reflects what breeders commonly experience under normal conditions.
Does this work for all breeds?
This tool uses species-wide averages. Some breeds or bloodlines may consistently trend earlier or later than the average.
Is this a substitute for veterinary advice?
No. This calculator is intended for planning and educational purposes only. Always consult a veterinarian for medical or breeding concerns.
