We have some egg-stra adorable news! 🐧 We are deli We have some egg-stra adorable news! 🐧 We are delighted to share that three Humboldt penguin chicks successfully hatched this April. Swipe to see them grow!

Every new chick is a victory for this vulnerable species, but this trio required a true team effort. Shortly after hatching, our dedicated animal care and veterinary teams realized the chicks needed some extra assistance. They immediately stepped in to provide around-the-clock care and hand-feed the newborns, ensuring they received proper nutrition during their most critical milestones. We are happy to report that their health improved greatly with this specialized care!

Visitors won't be able to see them in the main habitat just yet. As they molt out of their “fuzzy baby britches” and into smooth juvenile tuxedo feathers, they are continuing to bond with their care team who will support them through swim school, then re-introduce them to the rest of their friends and family. Once they are cleared as expert swimmers, they will make their official public debut. For now, keep following along on our social media channels for updates!
