  • Baby penguins are called chicks. When first hatched, they are grey and fluffy, lacking the colouring of the parents.
  • A group of penguin chicks is called a crèche.
  • Depending on the species of penguin, baby chicks hatch about 34-36 days after the eggs are laid.
  • When first hatched, penguin chicks are fed on a milk-like substance produced by the father.
  • Upon hatching, the chick starts calling immediately, so that its parents learn to recognise its voice.
