    Urate appearance?

    So I had my mohave out and about since he was being active and he decided to pee on top of my sweater.

    But I was wondering, after the initial whitish urate his pee turned deep yellow, then the last bit was a cloudy yellow that wasn't as watery (pooled a minute on the sweater instead of instantly seeping in like the rest of it) and looked a bit cloudy.

    Is that normal?

    Silly Vladimir seems to like to go when I'm holding him, this is the second time now.

    Re: Urate appearance?

    My BP passed a huge chunky bright yellow chalk ball the first week we had him, I think he was a little dehydrated initially. I wouldn't worry about deep yellow urates, the makeup and color of urates in any animal is highly dependent on what is being eaten, what is in the water, how hydrated the animal, etc.
