The hen looks like a mixed breed, possibly with Black Copper Marans in her.

Agree hen looks mixed with Black Copper Marans.

Hybrid vigor adds back a lot of gene material, and you likely have better luck to gaining back the broody type genes.

I have a Welsummer/Wyandotte and possible game also mix that has been a good broody hen for me.

Some lines of BCM's are good brooders.

Time will tell.

There is, unfortunately, no way to make a hen go broody. You might find this thread helpful
