The female platypus lays eggs, which hatch, so she never gives birth.

The platypus mating and breeding season is spring and summer, from about September through to February, sometimes extending to March.

Eggs are laid about 28 days after mating, although scientists are still unsure of the exact time frame, and hatch between eight and ten days after being laid.
