My rabbits urine is very milky and has heavier particles that are at the bottom if swirled around. I've noticed after they eat from their fress veggie bowl they will urinate in it

Hello and thank you for reaching out to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. It is very normal for rabbits to have "milky urine" as they excrete a significant amount of calcium in their urine. It is also not unusual for their urine to be red-tinged, as a result of the porphyrins and plant pigments they excrete in their urine. I hope this is helpful!
