Female Zebra Issues?

I have a 1.3 of Zebra finches.

The amel and NEW female get along fine but the NEW female picks on the 2 OLD ones. The only time she is not chasing them is if they are eating, drinking, or sitting ON TOP OF a nest.

I just rearranged the entire decor so...should I let them settle it on there own?

There aren't any ill effects except for maybe some stress.

My finches were like that when i added them together. they just need to settle down. but maybe you also need to more males and another female. it is better to either have one pair or 3 or more. if you only have 2 pairs they will fight like all the time. Mine were fighting for about a week before they all settled down and paired up and now i have eggs in like 10 diffrent nests and they aonly seem to get angry when a pair get close to there nest.

I used to have 2 other males but this ONE male decided to beat the snot out of the other two. So now it is 1.3 like with reptiles.

Can't wait for them to settle. they are stressing me out. lol.

In reptiles this is the least stressful way to breed them.
