yes platypuses lay eggs and they hatch from them.
Yes. Platypuses are monotremes, or egg-laying mammals. Female platypuses incubate their eggs. They do this by curling tightly around the eggs for around ten says, until they hatch.
No. Platypuses, like echidnas, are monotremes, meaning they are egg-laying mammals. Baby platypuses hatch from soft, leathery eggs.
The platypus breeding season is spring and summer, from about September through to February, sometimes extending to March. The young platypuses will hatch anytime during these months, after an incubation period of ten days.
Baby platypuses hatch from an egg, not just a shell. Female platypuses lay soft-shelled, leathery eggs. Platypus are one of just three species of egg-laying mammals, known as monotremes. The other two are the short-beaked echidna and the long-beaked echidna..
Platypuses are special mammals known as monotremes. This means they produce their young - or reproduce - by laying eggs, which hatch into young platypuses that initially feed off mothers' milk. Female platypuses lay eggs in a chamber at the end of a burrow dug into a riverbank or next to a creek.
Platypuses reproduce via sexual reproduction.Platypuses reproduce by laying eggs, which hatch into young platypuses that initially feed off mothers' milk. The platypus is a monotreme, or egg-laying mammal, just like the echidna, and quite unique to Australia. Platypuses lay eggs in a chamber at the end of a burrow dug into a riverbank or next to a creek.Their young, once hatched, drink milk from grooves on the mother's abdomen where it seeps from glands, rather than attaching to teats.platypuses are strange in that way,there like mammals becaus thay nurse there young with milk but unlike mammals they lay eggs.
Platypuses are egg-laying mammals, so they reproduce by laying eggs rather than giving birth to live young. The male platypus transfers sperm to the female using specialized structures on their hind legs, and the female will then lay eggs that hatch after about 10 days.
Mother platypuses do not carry their young. They are egg-laying mammals, or monotremes.Platypuses reproduce by laying eggs, which hatch into young platypuses that initially feed off mothers' milk. Platypuses lay eggs in a chamber at the end of a burrow dug into a riverbank or next to a creek.Fertilised platypus eggs stay in the mother's body for around 28 days. The egg is incubated by the mother curling around it and keeping it warm and dry in the chamber of the burrow for another 10 days.
Despite being mammals, platypuses lay eggs. They are monotremes, that is, egg-laying mammals.
Platypuses lay one to three eggs once a year.
Yes; platypuses lay soft, leathery eggs rather than hard-shelled eggs.
