My chickens wont go broody!

[Anyahueb]

So I have 3 chickens, one leghorn and two isa browns and they wont go broody!
I have 5 fertile eggs but none of them have tried sitting on them. I even have tried putting rosemary in and fake eggs.
They are at point of lay, about 30 weeks or so. I'm afraid that the eggs might die if it gets too late...

Those breeds, or leghorns at least, are not known for their broodiness. Leghorns especially are known for good egg production. I would purchase an incubator...
And by the way,

There's nothing you can do to make a hen go broody. Leghorns and ISA browns are bred for egg production. They typically don't go broody.

 

[redranger209]

It’s incredibly rare for those breeds to go broody, especially the leghorns.

 

[redranger209]

It was bred out of them in favor of egg production years ago.

Primarily they are breeds that rarely if ever go broody, but even if they were it is very rare for birds newly laying to go broody.

Going broody is all hormonal.
You can't force a bird to go broody.

Next time wait until the bird goes broody before you even buy the fertile eggs.

Can you borrow an incubator?

I probably should just borrow an incubator. Thanks for the advice though!
