In the majority of the domestic species the urine should be yellow in colour. The colour of the urine is very dependant on the '''urine specific gravity''' so it is important to account for this.  If the urine is more concentrated it will be darker in colour and vica versa as a general rule .  Equine urine can become brown if left standing.  Discoloured urine should be taken into consideration when carrying out tests which involve a colour change such as dipsticks.  The abnormal urine colour could affect the result.
