The data were analyzed using both Chi-Square and Logistic Regression analysis α=0.05. data was collected in April 2021. Results: The results showed that there was a significant relationship between ANC, EIB, and onset of lactation with EB (x2=3.145; p-value=0.008, x2=18.745; p-value<0.001, and x2=47.147; p-value<0.001). Conclusions: ANC, EIB, and onset of lactation are determining the success of EB.
