King Chicks Gender Reveal

Join us on our Gender Reveal Party!

We had two King Chicks hatched earlier this year, one on Valentines Day, one on St. Patrick's Day. It is difficult to distinguish males from females among King Penguins by just looking at them, the way we find out their gender is to run feather DNA tests to confirm.

Diamond was born on 14 February 2021 (Valentines Day!), by parents Loaf and Solo.  

King Chick #2 was born on 17 March 2021 (St. Patrick's Day!), by parents Noel and Stretch. We have not officially named him yet.

And... both of our 2021 king chicks are male!

Fun Facts

Ever wonder how you can tell the difference between chicks and adults? 

Check out their beaks. The ones with the black beaks are the chicks after fledgling.
