This is the only Corid I found on their website but it says for cattle. This might sound like an idiot question can this also be used for poultry?

Yes.it is listed for cattle,but used for poultry also. Dose for Corid 20% powder is 1-1.5 tsp per gallon of water.

Dose for Corid 9.6% liquid is 2 tsp per gallon of water.

Most feed stores carry what I mentioned. I order Avian Super Pack from Randall Burkey, but there are other vitamin dispersible powders available from feed stores. If your other birds seem unaffected and aren't picking on your hen, don't worry about separation. See how she is in the morning, and if you want to separate her, just make sure it is a comfortable area with room to walk around, eat, drink, etc. The Corid in the link you listed is just fine for poultry and is the same product all poultry keepers use. Just be sure to follow proper dosage instructions I mentioned when you use it. It is a safe and effective medicine for control of most strains of coccidiosis.

For the wormers I mentioned, here they are:
Valbazen: http://www.valleyvet.com/ct_detail....d5-a192-00b0d0204ae5&gas=valbazen goat wormer

Safe-guard: http://www.valleyvet.com/ct_detail.html?pgguid=30e0766b-7b6a-11d5-a192-00b0d0204ae5

Valbazen is Albendazole. Albendazole kills all worms.
Safe-guard is Fenbendazole. Fenbendazole will kill all worms with the exception of tapeworms in poultry.
