But not hot enough to boil the egg from the inside. So id say anything between 65C - 99.9C would be a good guestimate of how hot their arses are.

They actually hold the egg atop their feet! 
Huh. Why do I know this? >

Male penguins also have a small paunch to cover the egg to keep the top warm. Female penguins will seek out the most dadbod penguin to have chicks with. >

Peak male performance. >

*Applies only if you're a penguin >

Damn shame I'm not a penguin then >

Finally, a plausible explanation for Danny Devito's sex appeal...^s/2 >

Whoa, is that the square root of sarcasm?? >

Half sarcastic... The superscript is not meant to be mathematical, rather it suits my aesthetic preferences.
The root of sarcasm in /s^1/2 you^2 ! >

Lol yeah it’s the root of the power of sarcasm. Maybe even cooler >

Thanks, this is a proud moment for me. I raised it that way... >

random antarctic fact: the snowy sheathbill is antarctica's only land bird and it likes to drink milk from sleeping seals on the beach >

Stole my fucking milk, can't have shit in Antarctica... >

you can have frostbite :) >

the frostbite fell off my hand and took my finger, cant have shit in antarctica >

Surprisingly, their body temperature (and therefore their butts) is only about a degree warmer than humans. >

Yeah they're more insulation than furnace. >

I know what to warm up my fingers with if I move to antarctica >

finger💀 >

I already caught one, I can catch nine more. >

Just pop em on there like they're olives. >

Saw a documentary about this and saw how they live in the arctic. 
 Thousands standing really close to each other getting blasted by wind in the pitch black night and subfreezing temperatures trying to keep warm and some with the eggs on their feet. >

The lowest ranked penguins in the social hierarchy stand on the very edge of the penguin cluster >

and they call them beta clucks
... in penguinese, of course >

If there is a saying : " Warm as penguin butt in Antarctica" how we could use it. 
Trust me. This clothing make you feel warm like penguin butt in Antarctica
Could you make me a tea ,not too hot,just warm as penguin butt in Antartica >

They just believe in themselves. Before they start, they think "This is the greatest butt warming of All Time". >

They would be warm relative to their surroundings but I wouldn't think they would have warmer butts than any other animal that lays eggs. Unless penguins incubate at higher temperatures, their butt temperatures wouldn't need to be any warmer then any other bird. If anything, I would think penguins would be able to incubate at lower temperatures then other birds due to where they live and therefor, would actually have colder butts compared to other similar animals. >

See that OP. Now you can kindly leave them penguin butts alone!! 
Any bird's butt will be warm enough.. >

Yeah there is an expression here in Brazil that translates to "As hot as a penguim ass" >

Eperor Penguin's internal body temperature is 102°F and can get down to 60°F while they conserve energy. To prevent their feet from freezing and sticking to the ice, their blood flow keeps just the temperature of their feet above freezing to reduce heat loss. Fascinating!
Anything lower than 95°F in humans is severe hypothermia (for comparison) >

One of the mating habits exhibited by the French Antarctican Penguin is the poor male having to find a rock that is approximately the size of a penguin egg.  Finding a suitable rock on more ice that most could imagine is no easy task.  Should he be fortunate enough to find one, he then noses it up on his feet and short walks over to the cutest penguin honey he can see.  (Or maybe just the closest one.)  The hormone laced male waddles over to the female and hopefully drops his rock at her feet to show his dexterity and ability.  If she accepts the rock then the NSFW stuff starts.  There is no proof, but some have theorized that this was the behavior that generated the term "getting ones rocks off".
