If you bred a female on January 1 Date due to Whelp would be March 5th so, you would count the day after as day 1. Keeping in mind that the day she was bred may not be the day she concieved. Her eggs break down if not ferilized within forty-eight hours. The male sperm life up to seven days.

Revivalanimal.com offers a breeding circle giveing you breeding dates vs whelping dates.
