What's it mean when one turd is brown and the others green is that bad?

Color of stool: Stool gets it brown color from the amount of bile released via the bile duct. Bile is produced in the liver and extra bile is stored in the gall bladder. When less bile is released for various reasons, the stool will look less brown
