Snakes give birth through a process called ovoviviparity, where the eggs develop inside the mother's body and hatch before being born. The mother then gives birth to live young. The process is similar to live birth in mammals, with the mother typically giving birth to a litter of baby snakes.

Do snakes give birth to live young and nurse them?
Some snakes (mostly vipers and boas) appear to give birth to live young. What really happens is that they retain eggs inside instead of laying them, and the young emerge when they hatch. This is called oviviparity.Only mammals nurse their young. Snakes (like birds) are nourished by the egg yolk until they are hatched, then must fend for themselves. Unlike birds, they are not nursed or cared for by the parent.

How do platys give birth and what is the process like?
Platys give birth through a process called live-bearing, where the female gives birth to live young instead of laying eggs. The female platy carries the developing embryos inside her body until they are fully formed, and then she gives birth to the baby platys. This process is similar to how mammals give birth, with the babies being born fully formed and able to swim and survive on their own shortly after birth.
Do amphibians give birth to live young?
