I think with most reptiles yellow to orange tinged urate can indicate dehydration. How is the humidity in the enclosure? have you increased the temps? I would recommend soaking daily for for a week or so (my guy drinks more when he is soaking). If you feel really worried about it you can check with a vet, and maybe drop off a fecal sample to be tested for parasites.. Do you feed any food that is orange or has orange dyes in it? perhaps its just the poop on top of the urate... No expert here but thats what I would try. How is his feeding response?
