Why does it sound like she has hiccups??

Little worried about Round Chicken. She’s around 4-5 years old, red sex link. We don’t know exactly how old she is, but I’d say minimum 4. Eating and drinking fine, no other behavioral changes I’ve noticed. She’s moving around fine as well.
I’ve attempted to put in a video- let me know if it doesn’t work.

Check and see if there's anything stuck in her throat.

Will do! We are supposed to add to our flock this weekend so I'm really hoping she isn't afflicted by something contagious.

It kinda sounds like she has something stuck in her throat, especially with the way she shakes her head while doing it. Also, check in her ears for anything.

How do I check her throat properly? Like feel along the outside of it?

You can do that and look down her throat. It might be helpful if you had a flashlight while doing so.
