Carbon Date startOfDay give me endOfDay date

$dt = Carbon::now();
dd($dt->startOfDay(), $dt->endOfDay());

Carbon {#324 ▼
  +"date": "2017-05-15 23:59:59.000000"
  +"timezone_type": 3
  +"timezone": "Europe/Paris"
}
Carbon {#324 ▼
  +"date": "2017-05-15 23:59:59.000000"
  +"timezone_type": 3
  +"timezone": "Europe/Paris"
}

First variable is the date and hour actually, dd() function is for display content of variables.

startOfDay() method give me the same thing of the endOfDay() method...

Sorry for the late, but someone might see this answer. The thing is when you use

dd($dt->startOfDay(), $dt->endOfDay());

it mutate $dt object that's why it shows both times as one. So make sure to copy it or clone it before use.

$dt->clone()->startOfDay();
$dt->clone()->endOfDay();

Best practices to use copy() method for different date time.

$startDay = Carbon::now()->startOfDay();
$endDay   = $startDay->copy()->endOfDay();

Have you tried to use copy() or assign to variable, and then use Carbon methods?

$dt = Carbon::now();
dd($dt->copy()->startOfDay(), $dt->copy()->endOfDay());

Don't change $dt value, only copy and then make startOfDay() or endOfDay().
