“…Taylor (1940) and Bonnafous & Raynaud (1967), on the other hand, reported that coprophagy occurred during daytime, whereas Scheunert & Zimmermann (1952) observed coprophagy at several times during the 24 hours.…”

Adult male rabbits, wearing a plastic collar to prevent coprophagy, excreted soft faeces during the first half of the light phase, starting at about the time the light switched on at 0600. While soft faeces were being excreted, food intake was reduced considerably in collared as well as in non-collared animals. Rate of passage of gastrointestinal contents in the rabbit was extremely high. Chromic oxide appeared in the faeces 4-5 h after it had been ingested in pelleted food. Coprophagy had no effect upon the rate of passage of gastrointestinal contents, and chromic oxide passed through at the same rate, whether it was incorporated in soft faeces or in pelleted diet.

“…Soft feces have been revealed to be produced through a mechanism separating small particles from the digesta at the proximal colon and excreted during certain times of the day [1,2] . Actually, coprophagy in the rabbit has been reported to be observed during certain periods of the day ; during the active daytime [101, the night [11] or 24 hours [12]. These discrepancies are now accepted as being attributable to different environmental conditions such as feeding schedule or light-dark cycle [61.…”
