I know, I did the same thing and remember one of your early posts there. Let's see if you do. It went something like

Yup,
Just showing the lack of consistency in his delusion.
Unfortunately for me, it means dipping back into the madness.
I'm hoping that it might shock him back to reality.
Freud only had sexual repression, i could make a career out of this guy.
This is because the food they are eating is not the correct food.
Why is he eating his own poop and no one elses, how dishonest can you be trying to make it look otherwise.
When are you going to get it colin, that Target Food is a relationship between the consumer and the food not the planet and the consumer?
So in other words all things that happen are natural. your wrong.
Actually quite the opposite, his gut isn't working properly because he's eating the wrong food, which is what I have been telling you all along.
No it does not say that. It states the rabbit produces two types of fecal pellets. One is dry and light in colour which is not eaten. The other is dark and moist which is passed through the digestive system a second time.
And you would be wrong, the wiki on it specifically states that the fecal pellets are passed by and the undigested food pelets are reeaten.
Nope. If the rabbit did not do this his digestive system would not be able to breakdown the food enough to get the vitamins it needs. This does not change no matter what the rabbit eats. That is how the rabbit’s digestive system works. If he did not eat his feces the rabbit would die of malnutrition.
I just did, he is obviously eating his own pellets because there is something wrong with his diet.
No I think its more that you feel backed into a corner so your trying to rely on semantics to bail you out.
Some of the things I say about evolution, I'm just being sarcastic, and I do question a lot of things about it.
Thats not me choosing genius, I'm purposly listing the whole quote from google so you don't try to say I'm cherri picking.
It's a seasonal food that he is resorting to because he is out of target food.
Sure, when they are starving.
What you mean to say is you would hope that it would be experimentation. Thats not proof. They don't list it as testing food, but here you go with your evolution goggles on making assumptions.
Animals only experiment with food when they are starving, period.
I don't mean normal in that way, I mean its not natural from the Target Food perspective.
That may not be possible for them, maybe they have family to tend to or maybe they are pregnant.
All I want to be clear on is that it is normal for individuals in a species to have different diets. There is no diet for a species. Diet applies to individuals, not species.
Have you lost your marbles? Anyone that has read any number of diets can see thats not the case.
I guess its possible, but I would question the eating dirt part, its not normal and is a sign of hunger.
It doesn't matter what the demographics are, we still know thier diet, and if we know their diet, there is no way they are experimenting, especially since the always seem to omit that interesting tale.
And you would be wrong, the wiki on it specifically states that the fecal pellets are passed by and the undigested food pelets are reeaten.
I just did, he is obviously eating his own pellets because there is something wrong with his diet.
Mine is don’t just deny ignorance, laugh at it and there is an unending single source of ignorance supplying the comedy on this thread. TF
NEW MOTTO - DON'T JUST DENY IGNORANCE, FIGHT IT
I just love how YOUR going to prove me wrong, but the onus is on me. LOL.
Thats YOUR interpeatation of it, but the wiki on it clearly states otherwise.
You just wrote: "No I think its more that you feel backed into a corner so your trying to rely on semantics to bail you out. "
It's poop. It's eaten. It passes through the GI tract. It comes out as poop. Quit the kiddie arguing and learn something for a change.
I guess there is always an exception to the rule.
You have stated many times that no one has ever observed a species changing into another species.
But you now claim that when a caterpillar changes into a butterfly it changes into another species.
Thats YOUR interpeatation of it, but the wiki on it clearly states otherwise.
Oh WOW! how did I miss that Lulu.

That would be because one term can have many different meanings.
That makes no sense. You choose multiple different definitions. Do you realize that?
Either way you slice it, it always comes back to the fact that he doesn't have Target Food.
It's a seasonal food that he is resorting to because he is out of target food.
Not looking for your excuses why TF doesn't work. I am asking about diets.
Animals DO NOT experiment with food, if they did you would be able to pose some proof of it.
That's just ridiculous. I'm not asking you for excuses as to why TF doesn't work. Let me clarify this for you.
You provide a number of definitions for experimentation. Notice there are multiple different definitions of experimentation in your list. According to almost everything posted it is clear that most animals experiment with food no matter how much food is available and how much they have eaten.
According to the definitions YOU provided animals experiment with food no matter how much is and has been available.
Notice how they didn't use the words test or experiment, YOUR WRONG.
The only one making assumptions is you with your tooth's folly goggles on.
According to the definitions you provided animals experiment with food. That's why I asked you to define the words. I wanted to learn what you have to say and you make it abundantly clear that animals experiment with food.
Only if you take Target Food out of context. They experiment with food about as much as you could say that evolution is a creator.
Not talking about excuses as to why TF is flawed. Animals experiment with food all of the year round regardless of how much food is available. Your own definitions show that to be the case.
I can tell your just really super confused. There is a big difference between what they want to eat and what they have to eat, and what they end up eating.
What is with this two-faced response?
I get nutrients from food, not from rocks.
It's not a sign of hunger. You eat rocks too or you would not live long.
Congratulations, you have identified the difference between phase one of hunger and phase two.
So a bear that does not eat fish has the same diet as a bear that does?
A mosquito that eats blood has the same diet as a mosquito that does not eat blood?
You've already provided a definition of diet and habitual and it is clear that this statement you made here must be wrong.
Hey tooth you missed another and now with you new definiton of species the dung beetle eats poop through all stages of its speciation beyond clssic

Seeing as though you have refused to supply the diet for the dung beetle I will do it for you Dung Beetle
But there is no proof they are suppose to be eating poo, your just assuming.
The Dung beetle not only eats dung but spends his whole life cycle deep in dung.
Life for the dung beetle really is $hite
The process by which cecotropes are produced is called "hindgut fermentation". Food passes through the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, where nutrients are initially absorbed ineffectively, and then into the colon. Through reverse peristalsis, the food is forced back into the cecum where it is broken down into simple sugars (i.e. monosaccharides) by bacterial fermentation. The cecotrope then passes through the colon, the anus, and is eliminated by the animal and then reingested. The process occurs 4 to 8 hours after eating. This type of reingestion to obtain more nutrients is similar to the chewing of cud in cattle.
