    Urates question, please
    So, I think (know) my big guy is sick. Pretty sure it's a RI. Since we have had him my daughter said twice I hear him breathing. I sat and listened and I heard nothing. Ever. A couple days ago I heard it and keep hearing it. It's like a whistle/wheezing sound. We have an appt on the 27th for a check up. That being said he pooped and there were two urates. One white normal looking one and one yellow one. It was like a dingy bright yellow if that makes sense. Just wondering what your thoughts are on that? It's kind of worrisome.

    TIA

    Urates are sometimes yellowish, greenish or even bluish-grayish, & still perfectly normal. So don't worry about that. :gj: (only worry if you see red/orange)

    Sounds like he has an RI starting up though...sorry. :(

    No I'm serious lol. Would I turn the uth off and just keep the ambient in low 80s? Or keep the uth on and normal but only make my ambient low 80s.

    Keep heater on and just make sure ambient is 80ish
    I was pretty sure his housing temps were ok. As you know, as long as he is at proper temps thats all that can be done till dr visit.
