The platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) is a semi-aquatic mammal endemic to eastern Australia, including Tasmania. Together with the four species of echidna, it is one of the five extant species of monotremes, the only mammals that lay eggs instead of giving birth to live young. It is the sole living representative of its family (Ornithorhynchidae) and genus (Ornithorhynchus), though a number of related species have been found in the fossil record.

The bizarre appearance of this egg-laying, venomous, duck-billed, beaver-tailed, otter-footed mammal baffled European naturalists when they first encountered it, with some considering it an elaborate fraud. It is one of the few venomous mammals, the male platypus having a spur on the hind foot that delivers a venom capable of causing severe pain to humans. The unique features of the platypus make it an important subject in the study of evolutionary biology and a recognisable and iconic symbol of Australia; it has appeared as a mascot at national events and is featured on the reverse of the Australian 20 cent coin. The platypus is the animal emblem of the state of New South Wales.[3]

Until the early 20th century it was hunted for its fur, but it is now protected throughout its range. Although captive breeding programmes have had only limited success and the platypus is vulnerable to the effects of pollution, it is not under any immediate threat.

Fuk it ill post on it... Lets see what smart ass shit other people chime in with !!

Nice, thanks for getting the ball rolling bro!

How's it going? How's the nursery? All baby blue? Little ducks? Tiny miniature clothes ready?

Good, nursery is in the works - i'll definitely post pics when it's done - about 2 more weeks or so. It was our old guest bedroom, so first I had to completely redo our old computer/my music room, convert THAT into the new guest bedroom in order to clear out the old one to make the nursery. Not even born yet and already working my ass off for this little chump, lol!

Not going with blue, just in case we need to redo the room. Probably green on the bottom half, border in the middle (some monkey's and vines and crap lol) and yellow on the top half. It matches the crib sheetset. TONS of clothes already, my wife is going nuts with it!!!

Yeah we'll be seeing less and less of you now that you be a daddy. Wait till he gets his days and nights mixed up. Gbrice will be all G-grumpy. Well at least no more midnight runs for ice cream and pickles...at least for about 9 more months or until you two figure out what causes this...lol

I'm already grumpy as hell (in general) - this is either gonna completely reverse that, or i'll be borderline tyrant!
