Three king penguin chicks hatched at the Saint Louis Zoo's Penguin & Puffin Coast in January and February, 2012. The zookeepers routinely weigh the youngsters to monitor their growth. After the quick check, they are returned to their parents.
A king penguin chick hatches after about 55 days, then its parents continue to keep it warm under their belly flap for 30-40 days until it grows too large to cover. They continue to share feeding duties for about eight months. This handsome bird is one of the largest penguin species. As an adult, it weighs about 33 pounds, second only to the emperor penguin.
