There are only three species of mammals that lay eggs; the platypus, the short-beaked echidna and the long-beaked echidna.

The echidna's egg is larger. It tends to measure 13-15 mm in length, compared to the platypus's egg which averages a mere 11 mm in length.

There are only two egg-laying mammals, the platypus and the echidna.

The platypus lays between one and three eggs each breeding season, but the echidna lays just a single egg.
