I am trying to monitor Farfou's urine pH.

What would be the best method and where can I buy the device/strips or
...?

I found at Petco a mid-range (6.2 -6.8) pH indicator, but it is for
testing fish water.

I used it on farfou's urine, which was very concentrate. The sample
stayed yellow, which would indicate a very acidic urine. Which is
possible, but I don't know it is accurate.

Any hints? Thank you.

Patricia,
The strips are very difficult to work with. They generally do not
give you enough range so that it is possible to tell the difference
between 6.2 and 6.6. There are electronic pH meters on the market for
about $50. Although they are a bit more expensive they do work far
better. They are accurate to a hundredth of a point ie 6.12 They are
simple to use and work for many years if taken care of. Here's one
such source, but there are lots of places on the internet to buy them.
You don't need to spend $500 for a lab grade machine, the $50 versions
work very well.
