The New England Aquarium has a brand new addition: this little rockhopper penguin chick.

Which is 17 times more than the 2.8 ounces she weighed at birth.

What's next: The chick's name will be revealed in the fall. She could join the other 13 rockhoppers in the penguin exhibit then if she's healthy enough.

There's a new chick at the Aquarium

Staff had to help her hatch out of her shell.
