My favorite EE HEN can't move her legs. She's 6 yrs old. Wouldn't even eat scratch this morning. Any advice?

Sorry she is not behaving for you.
Does she have ANY other symptoms?
Is it both legs?
Like she is paralyzed?

Could you upload a video to youtube then link it here?

Can she move toes or pull her legs away from your touch at all? Will she take a step or try to walk if you stand her up? Could she be dehydrated or suffering heatstroke? Have you added any new birds to your flock recently? Some possibilities besides dehydration could be botulism from eating dead remains of an animal or fish, moldy feed poisoning, injury, vitamin or mineral deficiency, or Mareks disease. Make sure that she is taking water, and can reach her food and water. Chick vitamins with electrolytes can be added to the water. A chicken sling to get her upright for several hours at a time might help.
