Yes i guess.. bilirubin usally found in bile. Then it get converted into urobilinogen by bacterial enzymes like protease. Then urobilinogen can convert into either urobilin or stercobilinogen ( usually found in feces)πŸ˜‰

Bile pigments are complex, highly colored waste products of the hemoglobin breakdown, found in the bile. Included are bilirubin (orange), biliverdin (green), their derivatives (urobilinogen, urobilin, bilicyanin, and bilifuscin), and stercobilin, which gives brown color to intestinal contents and feces.
