Baby Call hatched need advice

[Bantymama]

A while back i got a pair of calls, she laid one egg the day after i got her and then stopped. Well i had a broody banty and put the egg under her and it hatched today. So cute. Will my banty raise it ok or should i take it away. If i take it i will have to go to the feed store and see if they have a buddy for it which im afraid they will be 3 to 4 times its size. I do have some chicks that are 2 and 3 days old, would it work to put it with them. I'm really hoping to leave it with the banty. What do you all think.

You can do either. The bantam hen will raise it as hers just fine. My adult call ducks were hatched and raised by a bantam cochin.

Thanks for the quick response. I will leave baby with the banty and see how it goes. As soon as i can get a pic i will post it. Again thanks.
