Maybe I'm just a little overly cautious since all my birds seem to be getting sick.... But my favorite has been acting off the last couple days and I can't decide if it's because it's been raining or because she's getting sick too. Had her inside for a bit tonight and she pooped a big stinky watery poop. Hers usually aren't this stinky. Maybe it's just a cecal poop and I'm losing my mind. But i just wanted some other opinions

I posted from my phone. Did the pic show up for some but not others? Sigh..... Idk what to do....everyone is getting sick! I have no idea what she is vaccinated for or if she was I got her at Atwoods and I have no idea where they get their chicks. She has just been acting not her usual self the past few days. What can I do??

These are her poops from the night last night. I kept her inside and now she's in the bathtub because I have no idea what to do with her!
 
Can I take a poop sample by a vet, even one that doesn't work with chickens, and have them test it for coccidia? Or will they wind up sending it off for testing somewhere? No one knows of any chicken vets around here!! I feel so helpless, everyone is getting sick, and I have no idea what is wrong, no idea who to take them to, no idea what to do to help them, and I can't think of anything more torturous than having to watch them all suffer and not be able to help!! I wish I could take their place!!

Any vet can test it.
