As birds are excellent at hiding illness and home treatment hasn't helped, it would be best to bring Mia in for care at a local vet. Changes in stool color can indicate issues such as parasites, illness, organ problems, etc and if she is very lethargic and sleepy, she likely isn't feeling well. Until you can get to your vet, keeping her calm, quiet, and eating and drinking may help. If she is housed with any other birds, moving her to a hospital cage is also a good idea to prevent the spread of any illness and keep her from being picked on.
