Edinburgh Zoo welcomes new baby penguins!
- Published
Take a look at this adorable gentoo penguin chick! It was born at Edinburgh Zoo in Scotland.
Nine chicks were born at the zoo to parents Muffin and Mittens and it's hoped more will hatch in the coming weeks.
Gentoo chicks weigh around 98g when they hatch which is the equivalent to about half an avocado!
The first month is critical for the penguin chicks and keepers at the zoo will be keeping a close eye on the new arrivals to ensure they're fit and healthy.
