The first thing you need to do is determine if they are really fighting.
Is anyone bleeding?  Is there fear pooping?  If you seperate them and hold
them at arms length and turn them loose, does either run away or do they
run right back to the battle?  If you don't have any of the bad signs,
they are just play fighting and you should leave them alone.  They will
settle down in time.
