Default Urine or diarrhea?

Soo i got my first syrian hamster(i have him or a week), he is still very young but I saw some quite dark pee and i ignored it because his water botle was broken (bought him a new one right away) but his urine just got darker (like in one day) so is that maybe a poop, but i see in his cage normal poop (new ofc)

It could be a Urine infection if his pooh is normal. He will need antibiotics from a vet to clear it up.
I would also phone up the place where you got him and enquire about the other hamsters.

If they pee & poo in the same place then the two can get mixed up & look like diarrhoea or very dark pee so try to see if that's what's happening, if not & his pee is that dark then I agree with Lizzy & it could be a UTI which would need to be treated by your vet.
