Emperor Penguin Egg. Photo by Joe Van Os. Emperor penguin eggs are huge, measuring about 5 inches long, and are white, at least initially. Over the 60-day incubation, the egg may develop a stain of green or brown. Soon after this egg slipped off its parent’s feet, it was doomed, as birds rarely succeed in repositioning the egg.

Emperor Penguins and Chicks. Photo by Adam Rheborg. Emperor penguins raise only one chick each year, so these two adults are from different nests. Both are waiting for their mates to return from the sea with food for their growing chicks.
