Re: [RC] urine color - Jim Holland

Interesting info....

Hmm....I gonna go run out to the pasture and capture some one day when
it's real clear and check...sure doesn't look "straw" to me. Maybe our
"straw" here in North Georgia is different. <grin>

Jim,
Your guys' urine may be as clear as water(and that's good!), but I bet it is
straw in color. Straw is a very pale yellow.  In the clinical lab, we grade
the 'appearance ' of the urine( clear, cloudy, turbid, etc.) and the
'color'(colorless,straw, yellow, amber, red, etc.), plus the specific
gravity. The specific gravity of water is 1.000. The s.g. of normal urine is
1.003-1.035(in humans anyway). A constant s.g. of less than 1.007 indicates
a concentration problem. I bet your horses are just well-hydrated!
