What is a good brine recipe for a small bird about 8.5 lbs and for how long do i brine it?

We love the dry brine! There's a per-pound ratio for the salt in the first step of this recipe: https://food52.com/recipes/15069-russ-parsons-dry-brined-turkey-a-k-a-the-judy-bird. We like a full 3-day brine, but every bit helps; even just a few hours. Start asap!
