In study about the average of gestation length and the factors which involve to the pregnancy of 2599 dairy cows in Rachaburi and Kanchanaburi. We also found that the average is 276+-9 days. There are the factors that affect the gestation length such as sex (p LT 0.1) and number of calves (p LT 0.05) and the 3 months averages of the temperature that higher than 85 deg F (p LT 0.01). There is no difference between the average of the calving to first service interval and the average of the calving to conception interval in the cows that have gestation length less than 276 days.
