How do I get my birds to like each other

Every single time I have multiple birds out they keep on trying to attack each other. How can i make it so they can all be out in peace.

You can't make them like each other. The best you can do is work on building tolerance through socialization and training. Also to an extent you gotta let them sort it out between themselves so they can learn who to be scared of. If you keep intervening, they may do it just for attention.

Here are some things I've done that greatly reduced the fighting over time:
