    She is about 4 1/2 her tank is 40g and is cypress mulch,but when she did it I had just cleaned her tank out and had put newspaper down for the day because I didn't have enough to cover the tank

    That sounds normal to me I have had adults soil there whole tub with urine and feces and soak all the paper towel if they held it in a while.

    The white hard stuff is Urates, pretty much hard pee, shes normal and fine, just do as you said if its a pee, and over them i clean there tubs and let them sit in water get all the crap off.
