“…This period lasts between 114 and 145 days for captive platypuses [Hawkins and Battaglia, 2009;Holland and Jackson, 2002]. For the echidna, the lactational phase consists of growth in the pouch (55 days), followed by growth in the nursery burrow (up to weaning at post-hatching day 205 [Rismiller and McKelvey, 2003]. Nothing is currently known about how the development of the cerebellar and precerebellar systems correlates with the progressive increase in behavioral independence of the young monotremes.…”

“…Monotreme development can be divided into three phases: (1) an intrauterine phase of uncertain duration; (2) an incubation phase (within the egg) of 10-11 days duration [Hawkins and Battaglia, 2009;Renfree et al, 2009], and (3) a lactational phase (hatching to weaning) of 4-7 months duration [Hawkins and Battaglia, 2009;Holland and Jackson, 2002;Rismiller and McKelvey, 2003]. Both platypus and echidna have a greatest length of about 4.5-5.0 mm at laying of the egg and 14-15 mm at hatching [Renfree et al, 2009] …”
