Platypuses are nocturnal, so they sleep during the day. They shelter in burrows they dig in riverbanks.
From the time a platypus is hatched, it is called a platypus. It makes no difference whether the platypus is a day old, 17 weeks old or a year old. It is still a platypus. There is no official name for a young platypus. Despite what many websites report, a young platypus is not called a puggle.

A platypus spends most of its time finding food. The platypus has to eat the equivalent of its own weight daily, and its weight averages from 800 grams (for females) to around 2kg for males. This means the platypus has to find anough yabbies, crustaceans, insect larvae and other tiny creatures to meet this weight every day.
