Sydney's gay male pairing of Gentoos, Sphen and Magic, hatched their baby last week and are being great dads! The aquarium only just made the announcement, so they've succeeded in raising the chick for over a week now.

Male couples rarely get to raise chicks, for obvious reasons. In this case, another pairing had two eggs so one was taken and given to them to care for.

"The first day, the younger of the two males was an absolute star, he fed the chick a lot," she said.

"The older male looked a bit disinterested at first, but as soon as he got on the chick he did an amazing job as well, so we are really, really proud of them both."
