A platypus typically weighs between 1.5 to 2.5 kilograms (3.3 to 5.5 pounds). Males are generally larger than females, with some males reaching up to 2.8 kilograms (6.2 pounds). Their weight can vary based on factors like age, diet, and environmental conditions.
Platypuses are not born: they are hatched. A newly hatched baby platypus weighs about the same as a bean, which would perhaps be about 0.5 grams.
