Best Answer

The only mammals that lay eggs are echidnas and the Platypus. Female platypuses lay their eggs in their burrows (in riverbanks), which they make over 60 times longer when they are going to lay an egg. A female echidna curls up, lays the egg, and puts it in a pouch on her abdomen.

The only mammals that lay eggs are the monotremes. The only monotremes are the platypus and the echidnas, also called spiny anteaters. Platypus lays its eggs in a burrow. After laying an egg, the echidna puts its egg in a pouch and carries the egg with it.
