Thanks, I didn't know if it's a common thing that there are two chicks at once.

Yes.Actually, they usually have two of them. It's rare to see more but sometimes they lost one egg or chick due to cheeky predators around..

I'm new to PenguinWatch & I don't know much about penguins, so I appreciate the explanation. Thanks! 😃

Penguins by De Roy, Tui, is a great new book that taught me a lot about them and made this project much more interesting.
