What are urates supposed to look like?

[Laurene Puls]

I took pictures yesterday of Dmitry's soaking (removed the solid brown chunks) to be sure that I am actually describing urates when asking about them being colored.

I expect #2 are urates but not #1 which he eliminates a few times a week. Is this a typical tortoise elimination or a trip to the vet?

It doesnt look like normal urates which are usually just white. Not sure what I see here but pehraps some kind of parasite?

Doesn't look normal to me. I would have it checked for parasites.
