i currently have a silkie and a peking duck housed together. i wanted to get more silkies but i have a run for them that is 4 feet wide, 8 feet long, and 4 1/2 feet tall. with a coop attached to that. how many more silkies could i get because i dont want any fighting and want them to have enough room.
 
Question is, how large is the coop.

The run will support 3 chickens @ 10 square foot per bird.. The duck actually should have more run room per bird however due to their messy habits and need for water in the run deep enough to submerge their head in.

I wouldn't really put any more birds in it without expanding the run and without knowing the size of the coop itself, can't remotely make a recommendation beyond the above.
