No one gets sick from rain and cold. You must get a bug or virus. The other is just an old wives tale.Neither you nor your chickens can get sick from being cold or wet. You both could get hypothermia if cold enough for long enough but temperature can not cause illness like a cold or the flu or a chicken disease.
You get sick from exposure to viruses or bacteria, some of which happen to be seasonal, which makes people think they are getting sick from being cold.
Here is a good explanation if you are interested.
