Growbag - yellow slime, inconsistent colonization, fruits and pins

My friend doesn't know how to post here so I'm asking questions on his behalf.
Its his first grow, he bought a growkit. Spores behind a tie-clip drop into bag of rye... then planted into the pictured bag of kow-a-nite. I don't know how long ago my friend transfered the rye into the kowanite, he thinks about 2-3 weeks ago.
He's worried because the myc stopped colonizing and started fruiting before all of the kow-a-nite was consumed. There is yellow slime, when he touches the bag he says it feels like liquid, not viscous, but its difficult to tell. Thinks this is probably just "myc piss" but since he's a newb he wants you guys to verify. He has opened the bag once with washed, alcohol-sterilized hands (no gloves though) to plant the rye, and once more to let some air exchange happen.
Is the fact that the general color inside the bag isn't white, but brown and white (brown seems to be unconsumed kowanite) evidence of contamination?
He just doesn't know what a kowanite bag is supposed to look like, is this normal?

Yes thats looks normal for Kowanite and the slime is normal for poo in bags. I cant tell in one of the pics but it looks like a large patch is not colonized in that second pic....could be an overly wet spot or a small area halted by negative bacterial growth. If the uncolonized spot stinks I would cut it off and spray that area with a lil peroxide and put in a new bag or clean that one the best you/he/she can. GO FOR PINS!!!
