Sometimes if they aren't drinking enough their urine is very concentrated
and can appear orange in the snow. You could take a sample to the vet, just
to be sure.

Hi! to all on the list,
Greetings from sunny central Alberta,
We (Gordon & Geri) have been on the list since mid December,this is 
the first time I am writing to the list. I enjoy getting the e-mail 
everyday and reading  the fjord list.
We live on a farm 10 miles west of Bowden,Ab. (Bowden is 60 miles 
north of Calgary)We raise purebred Dorset Sheep,I (Geri) also have a 
flock of around 50 colored sheep. I enjoy spinning and weaving with 
the fleeces from my girls.
We have 7 fjords at our place (6 are ours) 1 Stallion,2 Geldings,
3 Mares and 1 little guy that was born last spring and to be gelded 
this spring.
We have been to the show at Libby for the past 2 years, we had a 
great time watching everyone in the show. We are planning on going 
this year as well. I don't recall reading the dates for this years 
show on the list, have they set a date yet? If so could somebody 
please post it so we can plan our vacation around it?
MY QUESTION IS (please don't laugh to hard)
What color is the normal color for a bred mares urine to be 
light yellow or a reddish brown color? 2 of our mares are bred and 
one has light yellow urine and the other has the reddish brown 
colored urine. (Could she be sick,should we get the vet out,she does 
not look or act like she isn't feeling good)Take Care
