I'm in the bathroom watching the boys play & Rufus just done a bright yellow wee?! They've not wee'd on me (yet) -is it meant to be bright yellow?! It looked almost thick?!
 
Oh I just read it should be that colour, ignore me. God I am such an overprotective worrier!
 
Thanks ;) poor little man I kept interrupting his play to inspect his private bits haha. He was like mum go awaaaaay!
 
Just the usual learning curve! We prefer newbies who ask rather too much by far to those who ask too little and only when they are in deep kimchee! After all, you can only judge what is wrong when you know what is normal!

At that opportunity, may I tell you that you should not panic if you come across some milky white pee sooner or later - that is just a sign that excess calcium has been secreted the normal way. It dries to a powdery white patch and can make poo look "mouldy" when a piggy happens to spray its pee over some!

Guinea pig pee often discolours to rusty and orangey tones when in contact with the air. Sometimes food can also discolour urine. Only when you notice bright pink pee do you need to be worried - that is an indication of blood in the urine and means that you need to have your piggy seen by a vet. More often than not, it is the onset of a urinary tract infection to which piggies are quite prone.
 
And on a note about pee, I've been watching mine like a hawk recently as we've a poorly lady. She's been sniffing round her mate's bums hoping to catch a hot poo! Her gut balance needs to be restored as she's been on anti-biotics (use pro-biotics to avoid) and this is how to achieve it! When her friends get especially fed up of a nose in their bottom, they'll spray her with several jets of wee! It's quite effective! Girls do it to boys if their attention in not welcome too, when they're in season.
Isn't it amazing what you learn! I quite like the jet system of "Pi** Off"! :-)
 
Haha wow I didn't kno they did that! Pretty clever Altho slightly gross ;) haha
