Dead chick and found blood in poo

I'm pretty sure my 5-week old Cornish Rock X meat birds have coccidiosis (2 dead birds in 2 days, mucousy bloody droppings) as well.

I've called every feed store in my area for either Sulmet or Corid and no one has anything in stock except for Tractor Supply, and they only had ONE 10-oz bag of the 20% Soluble Powder left.

This chart http://www.sheepandgoat.com/articles/coccidtable205.pdf says to treat, you mix 4-oz of powder in 50 gal of water. I'm guessing that would mean 0.08-oz per 1 gallon of water, but how in heck do I measure 0.08-oz of powder??

I don't need 50-gallons of water!

Does anyone who has done Corid treatments have a better way to mix the 20% soluble powder?

Thanks


i know the sachet your talking about and they supply a smal scoop with it to messure with

another way to messure is use your egg weighing scale

or you can get 1oz and add that to 12.5 gallons, 1oz should be easy to messure
 
Washed everyone's feet, cleaned the coop litter off floor. Had to really soak a couple of the bantams to get the poo off their butts, they were soaked I towel dried and let them loose to go into run. Is that ok are should I have blowed dried her? They have been through hell I did not want to cause anymore stress.

Edit to add
I could feel the chicks breast bone where in my chicks you can't. Besides the corid is there anything else I should be doing for the poor things? Supplements , meat, or yogurt or something.
