Is this normal for BP urine?
This is my first BP, so I'm not entirely sure what their urine is supposed to look like.
That green and white chunk was surrounded by a lot of yellowish liquid that smelled awful. My ball excreted this in her hide box, so I was able to dump it all out in a cardboard box for better viewing.
Is that normal?
I apologize if there are multiple questions on this, as I'm sure there are.

White hard chalky stuff are called Urates. They are completely normal in reptiles and birds.
The green coloration isn't exactly normal, but it's probably mixed in with some fecal matter so I wouldn't worry about it.
And their liquid urine ("yellowish liquid") is highly concentrated, which is why it smells horrible.

I can't tell from that picture, but most BP's have some coloration on their lips.
