Do possums lay eggs

Answer 1

In their native habitat of Australia, possums do not tend to eat birds' eggs. However, where they have been introduced to New Zealand, they have regularly been observed stealing and eating birds' eggs, along with young fledglings and chicks.

Answer 2

They give birth to live young who crawl into the mothers pouch to finish developing.

Further information:

Possums are marsupials, which are mammals that give birth to undeveloped young which require a pouch (in most, but not all cases) to continue their development.

There are only three species of egg-laying mammals, or monotremes. These are the platypus, the long-beaked echidna and the short-beaked echidna.

Answer 3

The mountain pygmy possum is a marsupial, so it does not lay eggs.

Answer 5
