They would be “milked” with a squeegee.

Wow, TIL.

The platypus’s mammary glands lack teats, with milk released through pores in the skin. The milk pools in grooves on the mother’s abdomen, allowing the young to lap it up.[16][71] After they hatch, the offspring are milk-fed for three to four months.

  No but I told my wife and she stopped talking to me, so I figured everyone should know.
