At this point, I think I would re-home the chicks and break the broody.
Look for started pullets or hens to add to your flock, this way you can forgo having to brood anything.
Even if you did quickly find some fertile eggs, there's no guarantee she's going to be a good mother. Some broodies aren't, so you always need a backup plan - a place to brood chicks and supplies.
