I don't think mom will hurt the chick, but if it can't keep up, eventually I think it will go cold - mom might nest in a different corner of the cage with the other chick. She might return at the sound of the peeping of the chick the first 5 or 15 or 40 times, but at one point the chick is likely to be tired and the peeping too weak and mom might not respond.
