Do pigs make their own toilet?

(view my website for some background on our piggies)
So the guys have been eating and drinking away to their heart's content, only when we're out of sight of course. Today my wife and I have noticed that they like to pee in the 90 degree PVC pipe. I cleaned up one pee puddle this morning and my wife saw one of them pee in the pipe again this afternoon. Am I too hopeful in thinking they'll pee in there consistently? If it's true, then should I put some feline pine in the tube to absorb the urine?

I would put some beddin in there.

One of my pigs like to pee in a particular spot too. It makes it easier to clean, doesn't it?

All my piggers like to pee and poop in their binkies and cuddle cups. I have to wash them everyday so they can do it all over again. lol What a routine for me.

My piggies also liked pooping and urinating in their pvc pipes. It didnt last for long because I stopped using them. I couldnt stand seeing the urine sitting in the pipes all the time. They are pretty good about not urinating in other hideys but for some reason pvc pipes are urine heaven.

Yeah, right now they're claiming the Y-shaped PVC pipe as home. They're pretty neat, though. They push all of their poo to the end of the pipe. I put some mini frisbees in the corners and put some bedding on top of it for them to pee. When we switch to fleece we'll use some small & shallow plastic trays.
These guys are great!

I made a littler box out of leftover coroplast (with bedding in it). Most of the pee and poop ends up in it. Good cavies!
