Is this i sign of early labor

150 days from date you saw her bred is a place to start. Could go 7-10 days either way. So, what day in March?

14th of march and 21st of march but shes hollowed out and noe has the bump anove vulva

The bump is ok. Don’t feel weird about posting pictures that concern you. We do it too. Animal husbandry gets down to the nitty gritty, these things have to be discussed and pictures taken. How else are we to learn?

Like @Mini Horses said, count 150 days from each date, she can lamb a week or two early or late.

Ok thanks. She seems a little more hollowed out today, still had some mucus and has been sitting down alot more

yeah we get/take some doozy photos.

@Baymule has sheep....goats for me. We're saying this -- you'll most likely just go out and find lambs doing well. AND yes, ewe and doe code is to...drive us crazy guessing!! This "could" be another 3 weeks. Relax...she'll do fine without you there.

They tend to hollow out as the lambs change position inside and her body's muscles and ligs and all get positioned to help with the birthing process.
August 8th would be the first "Due Date" if bred on the 14th of March... they can go 1-2 weeks early to 1-2 weeks late ON AVERAGE... and if she didn't actually settle until March 21st date... and give her a couple extra weeks if late... then her lambing due date should be from say.... Aug 5th through Aug 30th.
Her body is getting ready and you should have lambs soon. Not like you have a date with the dr for a planned c-section or anything...

Sorry i know its weird to be looking at the girlies parts of a ewe but over night cad has developed sort of a bump just above her vulva, sohould i be worried.View attachment 92919View attachment 92920

I think it's normal mine do it too and then it goes away after they lamb. She looks like she will lamb pretty soon. (Or could also be in a few weeks
