I noticed when cleaning out the piggies cage today that there was patches of white fluid on the correx (the correx is black) and on the outside of one of the snuggle sacs. Is this something to be concerned about? I have read that piggies wee can be cloudy white so not sure if thats what the stains are or not? Have taken a pic of the stains on snuggle sac

It looks like dried piggy pee that contains a fair amount of calcium. Nothing to worry about; that's how they get rid of excess calcium.
 
Yep, seems normal to me. :) Dont worry. :)
 
Yep looks normal. Maybe lay off some calcium enriched foods carrots, cabbage etc for a while it may calm down. :)
