Penguin Life Cycle

Growth
Birth
When the chick hatches, his feathers are wet. They will soon dry and become fluffy and grey. As the chick grows, it will no longer need to stay in the father's brood patch. After five months, he will become a junior penguin.
The first stage of the emperor penguin's life cycle is the egg. The father penguin will keep the egg safe and warm in his brood patch. The egg sits on his webbed feet and under his feathers. From the time the father penguin feels the chick move inside the egg, it will take about three days to hatch.

Adult and Reproduction
Adult penguins have a waterproof coat of feathers rather than down. In about 5 years, a penguin will find a mate. He will take care of his own egg until it hatches. Then, the mother and father will take turns bringing it food and caring for it until it can take care of itself.
There are many reasons penguins will eventually die. One reason is due to predators such as orca whales and leopard seals.
