Juvenile penguins, often referred to as chicks, are typically born covered in downy feathers, which are initially gray or brown and help provide insulation. They rely on their parents for food, usually through regurgitation, until they are able to swim and hunt on their own. As they mature, juvenile penguins undergo a molting process, replacing their downy feathers with waterproof adult plumage, which can take several weeks. They often stay in groups, known as crèches, for protection and socialization during this vulnerable stage of their development.
