    As a platypus lays eggs and produces milk, it’s the only animal that can make its own custard.

        DM me your card details and I’ll send you a couple of pints from my platypus farm.

            It’s heavily regulated now as someone sold one of the male drumsticks that still had the venomous spur attached at a Saturday farmers market.

            Fortunately most of the venom was deactivated by frying it but they still had to be hospitalised for a week.

              I wonder how they’d be for pets.

              I realize I shouldn’t.

              but. I kinda want one. They’re cute.

              (again, I realize I shouldn’t!)

                  Hell, we’ll even try to domesticate things that are anything but cute, like crocodiles, fish and spiders

                    They’re all cute to someone.
