How big of a coop/run would say, 10 or so small chickens need? (Silkie and seramas) I’ve never kept Adult chickens before but I love the chicks I have And am thinking about keeping them. Thanks!

Excellent point!Always make it bigger, might need it in the future
I’m in Texas so I’m actually thinking about adding a window a/c to mine! I’m okay spoiling them
Ditto Dat!!I cannot imagine any ordinary home AC unit either providing enough air exchange for the chickens' health or surviving the amount of dust chickens create.
Plenty of natural ventilation is best. Lots of people in the deep south and in Texas use coops that are more wire than wood -- coop and run in one unit with the "coop" portion just a few panels in the windward corner to provide shelter from storms.
Yep, that.Ditto Dat!!
Here's great design for Texas, could be scaled down for your size needs:
