Why does a stock become cloudy during the cooking process?
Your ingredients should always be covered in cold water. When bones are covered with cold water, blood and other impurities dissolve. As the water heats, the impurities coagulate and rise to the surface, where they can be removed easily by skimming. If the bones were covered with hot water, the impurities would coagulate more quickly and remain dispersed in the stock without rising to the top, making the stock cloudy. You should simmer a stock gently, at about 185 degrees. Start from cold to hot, not warm to hot. It will ruin a stock.

They take long because you need to extract the flavors from the bones. There are two types of stocks too, white and brown. The only difference is that in a brow stock the bones are roasted and the mirepoix ( onions, carros, and celery) are caramelized giving that deep rich brown color rather than taking the raw bones and vegetables.
