Maybe I am missing something, but this does not make sense to me.
When treating poultry for a severe outbreak of coccidiosis, the most we're supposed to give is 10 ml (2 teaspoons) per gallon. One gallon is 128 ounces, right?
The math says:
10 ml ÷ 128 = 0.078125 ml per ounce
Take 0.078125 ml, multiply it by the number of ounces in your container, and that's how much to use.
0.078125 x 128 ounces (gallon) = 10 ml
0.078125 x 64 ounces (half gallon) = 5 ml
0.078125 x 32 ounces (quart) = 2.5 ml
0.078125 x 16 ounces (pint) = 2.5 ml
0.078125 x 8 ounces (cup) = 1.25 ml
Your 24-ounce container:
0.078125 x 24 ounces = 1.875 ml
These are the amounts for a "severe" outbreak. Personally. I always use the "severe" dose. A moderate outbreak would be 1/2 those numbers, and a preventative dose would be 1/4.

"Dosage of Corid for Chickens (preventing and treating mild and severe infections): the dosage is given in US Teaspoons/Gallon, and the daily dose is the amount of amprolium in mg/kg body weight that a chicken consumes when it drinks 500mL per day.
* the actual number is 0.42 teaspoons per gallon, so you can also give ½ tsp/gallon
** the actual number is 1.68 teaspoons per gallon, so you can also give 1 ⅔ tsp/gallon"
