I am just having cuddles with Vader. He weed on me! Not unusual I know. It was quite a big wee and towards the end it was a whitish colour. He didn't squeal or squeak or seem in any pain. Just wandering is the whitish colour normal for a piggy or should I be worried? He seems otherwise healthy, is eating , drinking and active. Any advce would be appreciated, thanks.:^-
 
Don't worry urine can vary in colour, Urine will often dry and leave white powder which is excess calcium. As long as the powder isn't gritty it's fine.

Have a read of this Guinea Lynx http://www.guinealynx.info/normal.html Urine is mentioned halfway down.
 
Milky pee is the normal way of getting rid of excess calcium. it usually dries to a powdery white patch. Nothing to worry about. Some pees can be ginormous if a piggy has tried to keep it in for a while.
