Default Is Marking Pee More Yellow?

At the same time as us switching Nikko's food to a grain-free kibble, his nuts have also started dropping (he's a smidge over 5mo old now I think). He's becoming a man! (Yes btw, neutering will happen as soon as the vet gives him the green light).

He was doing great with potty training (yay for the bell!!!!), but suddenly has started making pretty small VERY yellow puddles along one edge of our living room wall. When the pee dries, it leaves yellow crusties on the carpet. We didn't notice at first, because he barely squats when he does it, and certainly doesn't lift a leg. Can he be "marking" if there is no leg lift? Does the super-yellow color itself mean marking? I can't really tell what color his pee is when he pees outside, which he does still ring the bell to do. Or is the extra yellow something I could/should just blame on the food switch? If it's the food that's causing the extra yellowness, should I be worried about that?

Whew, thanks for your help all... I just can't imagine what my life would be like if I had never discovered YT. I love this little guy so much, I swear my entire life right now consists of alternating between overwhelming love for him and overwhelming worry about him! Little buggar still hasn't had a solid poo yet, even though we're 99% sure the parasites have been gone for at least a month now. But one problem at a time I guess... so what's up with the pee?
