Doorbell transformer size/wiring

I want to add two chimes to my existing doorbell set up. I currently have two chimes that run off the existing system.

I'm assuming that I will have to replace the existing transformer. Can someone give me the output specs (voltage and amps) for a transformer that will run 4 basic chimes (by basic I mean the stand ding-dong types).

Will the wiring from the transformer to the connection point for everything need to be changed - i.e. will a larger transformer require heavier wiring to where everything intersects?

Thank you
