Do you mean gestation? Or the actual labor process?

Gestation is 111 days. The labor process takes a few hours depending on how many kits there are. If it's been an hour without any progress or the mom looks to be in distress, she needs to see a vet.

Why do you ask?

It is usually 111 days. Can be 105-120 days. Not usually around 120 days unless there are more kits...

Yup... they can go until 120 days... our chins last litter were about 116 days- but it's usually around 111.
