Bantam hatching Guinea egg

[FarmerMiah]

My Bantam was sitting on six eggs, one of which was a guinea egg. Five have already hatched. Since Guinea fowl have longer incubation periods, will the broody hen continue to sit until the egg hatches? The other chicks are one and two days old.

It is not likely that the hen will sit long enough to hatch the guinea egg. It is probably for the best as guineas need to be around more of their own kind.
