It may be a dominance behavior. Consider a larger cage for them with additional food and water bowls to prevent resource protection. A concrete perch or sandpaper perch wraps may help keep nails trim. You can also clip them yourself or have them clipped if you have never done it before. If the behavior persists or worsens, you may need to cage them separately to prevent injury.
