I have recently bought 3 pairs of green cheeks 1 pair are in a aviary buy them selves on one side of the yard the other 2 pairs are in 1 aviary subdivided with wire on the other side when i put the second pair in today they were fighting through the wire they took about 20 min to settle down and they seem fine now could this cause further problems ?

It may. Sometimes birds take a little while to get used to new birds in their area, and will often settle down. However, I have seen some birds hurt other through the wire because of fighting.. I would keep an eye on them, and if the fighting keeps up, perhaps a second (double) sheet of wire or shade cloth would be a good idea to stop them trying to get at eat other. If the pairs are too unsettled they mey not breed! However, I would think that they would settle down in time
