You can split up the two same sex pairs and try to mate hens with cocks in pens where they can not see their previous 'mates'. Sometimes it works, and sometimes they return to their same sex mates if given the chance. Same sex pairs can be used as fosters.

Or you can do nothing like me. If they are raising babies I'm happy to let them chose how -for now at least. If I wanted to breed specific pairs I would follow @sourland s guidance.

I once had two cocks paired with one hen
But then they split up on their own and each got their own mates.

Are you sure they are cocks and that the other two are both hens?

Just leave them to it. Things will work out in the end. You might find that the males will still mate with the other females about (because they are always cheating on their mates). So the hens should get fertile eggs.. and they will hatch them out. You could even put some eggs in the nest of the 2 males to raise as foster parents.

I learnt to just not get involved in the birds personal lives LOL. It always ended in disaster if I disrupted the birds like that. I have had all sorts of different relationships going on in the coop.... and I just now accept it as interesting aspect of their behaviour. I have males pair with males, females with females, one female with 3 males laying eggs in their nests like a cuckoo bird, and even 2 female pigeons accidently hatch and successfully raise a baby bantam chicken (when one of my bantams sneaked an egg into their nest without me knowing).
