Rabbit Gestation Calculator
Are you wondering when your rabbit is due to give birth? Whether you’re a first-time breeder or a seasoned rabbit owner, timing is everything when it comes to rabbit pregnancy. Our Rabbit Gestation Calculator helps you accurately estimate your rabbit’s due date based on the mating date and breed. This page is more than just a tool—it’s a complete guide to rabbit pregnancy and care during gestation.
Understanding the Rabbit Gestation Period
Rabbits have a relatively short gestation period, averaging 28 to 32 days. Some breeds, especially smaller ones like the Netherland Dwarf, can give birth as early as day 28, while larger breeds like Flemish Giants may go up to day 33.
Knowing the expected due date is essential to prepare a safe nesting space and avoid complications. Our calculator uses the mating date to project the earliest and latest possible delivery dates for your doe.
How the Rabbit Pregnancy Calculator Works
The calculator takes two simple inputs:
-
Date of Mating – When your doe and buck mated
-
Rabbit Breed – Choose from common breeds or select “I don’t know”
The tool then calculates a due date range, based on breed-specific gestation patterns. If you’re unsure of the breed, don’t worry—it still provides an accurate estimate based on the average rabbit gestation period.
Important Note: While the calculator is accurate for most rabbits, individual factors like stress, health, and breed variations may slightly alter the delivery window.
