So I adopt a boy guinea pig and remind you guys I am new to guinea pig but anyways like where he poops at get a yellow crusty discharge what to do
 
Are you feeding lots of hay, and not letting it run out. Sounds like it could be mucus, from stringy poops
 
Make sure you feed unlimited amounts of either meadow hay or Timothy hay. If it carries on see a vet asap

Hi and welcome

Can you please post a picture of the problem? It is impossible to get an idea what exactly is going on by your description but it sounds definitely not normal. Do you know anything about your piggy's previous diet? What is his diet now? How much hay has/is he being fed?

We recommend to have any new piggies vet checked unless they come from a rescue with mandatory quarantine and vet care and are healthy upon adoption. Especially when you adopt from free-ads, you have to be aware that many owners eager to get rid of a no longer welcome pet are more than economic with the truth, especially with health issues they do not want to spend money on or with unplanned pregnancies; we sadly see this regularly on here. :(
