Stool Color: Stool color is not important unless there is no color at all or it is bloody. Melena which is black sticky foul smelly stool signifies blood as well and is important. Otherwise green, brown, orange or shades thereof don't mean anything.

Stool: Stool color changes with diet and with your intestinal flow so I would not worry about the change in your stool colors
