My buns have very yellow almost milky urine. They're eating and drinking well so I'm just wondering if it's normal?
 
If/when it dries, does it leave white sort of crystals? If it's very milky, I might be worried about too much calcium in the diet. Rabbits don't process it well and it can lead to bladder sludge and I think kidney problems too. What sort of hay are you feeding, and what are the pellets you're feeding based on?

Lucernce/alfalfa hays tend to be higher in calcium, and the same with the pellets based on them. Some leafy greens also have higher calcium than others such as silverbeet and I think spinach.

Otherwise, generally rabbit pee can be almost any colour, as what you feed them changes the colour such as carrots etc.
 
That's fine, my rabbits have that too and it's normal. Rabbits urine change colors all depending on what you feed them.
