Sorry to be vauge, but I have no idea what i'm looking at here and need some help to identify.
I was just cleaning out the cage (did it last on Saturday - 4 days ago) and I found a clump of poos with what looks like hair/cobwebs around them.
Freaked out as I have never seen this before and I can't think of an explanation that would be settling.

Has anyone seen this before? Is it from a spider... are my piggies ill? Should I be cleaning the cage more often? Have they just pee'd on it and it's mould? Any advice would be appreciated.

I am struggling a bit to see what bit you are worried about, it could be pooh that's gone mouldy or it could be some impacted pooh from a boars anal sac. Is it boars that you have? Just check their bottoms to see if they are impacted with pooh.
 
They are on fleece bedding with litter trays with back2nature and hay.
I have 2 sows.
 
Thanks :/ will keep a closer eye on them going forward and move things around more
