BAT does not lay eggs as they are mammals, They give birth to young one -
A bat is a mammal in the order Chiroptera. Their most distinguishing feature is that their forelimbs are developed as wings, making them the only mammals in the world naturally capable of flight (though other mammals, such as flying squirrels and gliding flying possums, can glide for limited distances).
Read facts about reproduction of Bat -
Mother bats usually have only one offspring per year, and they are viviparous. A baby bat is referred to as a pup. Pups are usually left in the roost when they are not nursing. However, a newborn bat can cling to the fur of the mother and be transported, although they soon grow too large for this. It would be difficult for an adult bat to carry more than one young, but normally only one young is born. Bats often form nursery roosts, with many females giving birth in the same area, be it a cave, a tree hole, or a cavity in a building. Mother bats are able to find their young in huge colonies of millions of other pups. Pups have even been seen to feed on other mothers' milk if their mother is dry. Only the mother cares for the young, and there is no continuous partnership with male bats.
The ability to fly is congenital, but after birth the wings are too small to fly. Young microbats become independent at the age of 6 to 8 weeks, megabats not until they are four months old. At the age of two years, bats are sexually mature.
A single bat can live over 20 years, but the bat population growth is limited by the slow birth rate.-

Does A Bat Lay Eggs

Mammals do not lay eggs, the echidna and platypus are exceptions.
Female mammals release egg cells and when she mates, the fertilized egg attaches to the wall of the uterus and it grows there.

None. Bats are mammals. Mammals give birth to live young.
If you are getting your information about life from the Bible, you will be displeased at the number of errors.

It all depends on the time of day...and how the earth is pivoting on the axis at the time...but the last time that I observed this was about 3 months ago in Arizona....200 yards withing a deep-cave...me and my colleagues were able to count 383 eggs that had obviously protruded from the young bats anal cavity....
