Hope I am being over anxious. Ewe due at week end has slight cloudy discharge from vulva this morning. She is happy and ate breakfast as normal. Should I be worried?

[Slimjim]

Probably not. I have a Lleyn ewe that has a drop of whitish snot-like mucus sitting on the bottom edge of her vulva for a few days before she lambs normally. I've always felt it was just an excess of her own lubricant juices. It has occurred every year for the past 3 problem-free lambings.

Thanks slimjim  hope she is following suit with your ewe. Je

It could be the mucus plug which sits in the cervix to seal the uterus from bugs during pregnancy, then comes out just before delivery when things start to stretch

Thank you fleecewife, how long do you think before we start lambing? Je
