I've got four myself. Fortunately we don't go through tons of eggs so one going broody isn't a huge deal but I know it stresses out the hen and it's not good for them.I only have five, so losing 20% of egg production for weeks at a time is a deal. On top of that, she stays there for many weeks. I've only ever had it be for a couple like you in the past. I set her off to gather the eggs under her daily, and have even tried getting her on the roost at night. She's stubborn. Next spring I will have her hatch out her replacement.
