Hi and welcome!
In itself it is not worrying. Poo length can vary, and it also varies from piggy to piggy. It looks a touch dry to me, but not to an extent that you need to panic.
Could you please add your country, state/province or UK county to your detail, so we can take your climate (which may have a bearing on the poos), vet/rescue access and available brands into account straight away. Click on your username on the top bar, then go to personal details and scroll down to location. Thank you!

This has been going on for about 2 weeks now. All her poos have hole in the middle of the poo some are a little bit sticky to

Odd one only thing I can think of is something sharp scraping the poo as it travels through the bowel piece of correx for eg. try giving her some oil or petroleum jelly see if it can push anything out used to swear by petroleum jelly with the ferrets
It could be two poos stuck to each other. make sure that up to 80% of the daily food intake is hay and that you do not overdo the veg, even in this hot weather we have been having in the UK. If necessary, cut out the veg for a day or two and see whether that is solving the problem. make sure that you girl has plenty of fresh water all the time.
Please dont give your pig any oils or petroleum jelly. If there was something obstructing the digestive system- trust me you'd know about it!
They do look a little dry, so make sure shes drinking enough.
If you are concerned, have her see the vet.
All the best!
