Iron supplements can cause it, though usually it would be dark green or black looking.

Can being anemic be a cause also?

It's not uncommon to have strange colour when you go. As long as it's not white/pale, tarry, very bloody (some blood can be fine) or such it's normally ok. Green is usually from food dyes, GI infection, etc.

Had anything with a lot of food colouring? (kool-aid, fruity pebbles, etc) All of this can change stool colour.
