Corid 20% powder - Mix 1/2 teaspoon powder with 2 teaspoons water.
or

Out of curiosity how long do chickens need to be off corid to become Denagard? I have two quarantined chicks who have never been with my group. They finished their last corid dose today. But the have been breathing heavy and you can clearly hear them having difficulty breathing. Do I need to give a day or two break or can I start the Denagard?
I’ve had family in the hospital and haven’t been out there the past few days to spend much time.
