Russian tortoise no urate?

[EE torts]

hello! so my russian tortoise hatchling (Pebbles) from when i got him/her 5 weeks ago Pebbles had great urates (like toothpaste) and for the past week or 2 Pebbles has had no urates is this a problem?

No problem. A well hydrated tortoise will generally have less urates per pee. They're still passing small amounts in various locations around their enclosures but most owners/keepers will not see much urates during soakings.
