how long is the cow's gestation period
Answers. Best Answer: On average, the gestation period or length-of-pregnancy of a cow is 285 days long. This is similar to the pregnancy period of a woman, which is closer to around 9 months or ~260 days. However, actual gestation period of a cow can range from 270 days to 295 days, depending primarily on breed[s], age, body condition and nutritional health. Early-maturing breeds typically have a gestation period from 270 to 280 days.
