Do female penguins have babies

Well yes and no actually. The female lays the egg and then they take turns sitting over it to keep it warm for about half the time it takes for the chick to hatch. It's actually looks kind of like a dance when they roll the egg to each other, because they need to be so close to each other and they sort of sway, this has to be done so the egg is exposed for the least amount of time possible or else the chick inside may die. The female then leaves the male to sit on the egg while she goes in search of food. She is often gone for weeks, before returning around the time of hatching to relieve the male and feed her chick by regurgitating the fish she has fed on. If she does not return (because she has become dinner for another animal) her chick will die. Penguins are social animals and live and perform the above in very large groups often in the hundreds. Hope this answered your question ;)
