Our wee is yellow because our urates dissolve in water. Reptiles urates dont dissolve in water so they come out as water and white stuff. |

im pretty sure it shouldnt be green in snakes and lizards but it may have been mixed with green poop on the way out |

colour is menat to be white in an healthy animal. can change colour especially in birds due to diet. but other medical issues can cause the urates to become green, yellow, brown.
