Baby DK is a brown [[Kong]]. He wears a monogrammed red bib, with his yellow-printed initials "DK" in the center. The bib goes around his neck, is knotted in the back, and is even yellow-bordered. This bib is similar to adult Donkey Kong's tie. Baby DK also has brown eyes with small black pupils. On his head, he has a small piece of fur sticking up in a wavy formation. This is also similar to Donkey Kong's hair. He also has one big ear on each side of his head. He has a big mouth, with two small nostrils north of it. Like a typical primate, his hands, feet, ears, and mouth are all peach. Baby DK also has five fingers on each hand and five toes on each foot. Like [[Baby Mario]], [[Baby Luigi]], and [[Baby Peach]], his appearance in ''Yoshi's Island DS'' changes in future games. Baby DK's change is very minor. The only change for him is that he has a small, furry tail.

Much like his older self, Baby Donkey Kong is very strong and powerful and enjoys bananas. He is also very sensitive, as he is a baby. However, his cry is much softer than the other babies, indicating that he is also tough and somewhat resilent. He is usually found smiling and happy. He is also somewhat cocky, as in ''Mario Super Sluggers'', when he hits a home run he shows off by jumping around the bases and doing a flip into home plate.
