Yes - however - they share their responsibilities with the father. Penguins usually pair for life - when one parent needs to go to sea to feed - the other takes over he incubation.

Do male penguins watch over the egg?

The female lays the egg (they only have one each breeding season) and they then take turns sitting over it to keep it warm, until the female leaves in search of food, often for weeks, before returning just after hatching to feed the chick by regurgitating the fish she has fed on. If she does not return, her chick will die.
