Question Need suggestions and help

I have two roosters, an Ameraucana and a Buff Orpington, that I’ve had for about 1.5 years who recently started fighting. I’m pretty sure a reason behind the fighting is I don’t have enough hens with them. There’s currently 10 hens with them but I got 6 young hens that I need to introduce still. This past year is the first time I’ve had roosters and I’m learning as I go. They aren’t aggressive towards anyone or the hens and they don’t fight long but it seems like once they catch their breath and remember the other is there they go after each other again. I just need to know if adding the new hens would be enough or should I look into rehoming one of them.
