Little penguins growing up

The two newest members of the Genoa Aquarium family are growing, being cared for by mum and dad! The Magellanic penguin chicks are the offspring of two penguins named, Fiamma and Bigfoot. The parents feed the chicks by regurgitating pre-digested food directly into their beaks. The Aquarium staff supports the parents by providing food four times a day, making sure the chicks grow up healthy and strong.
