Frisky Rooster behavior

I have two roosters. I’m trying to rehome the one because he’s hurting a hen with his friskyness...well apparently now so is the second one! What the heck. Is it because I have two roosters or is this an awful phase?

I tried separating the hen in the house but she wouldn’t have it. So she’s separated in the run
 
Just keep both in the run during the day? I read the roosters together should be okay but never thought about that.
What are your suggestions for at night though?

Do you have a large dog crate? You can keep them in the run with the hens so they can all be together, but your hens will be safe. 2 dog crates would be best if they are small.... just make sure they have clean water and food at all times, and are in the shade.
 
I do. But I’d have to leave the roosters in the run rather than the coop then.
Is your run secure enough for night time?
If not put the males on the roost at night, or put crates somewhere more secure.

How old are these birds, in weeks or months?
How big is your coop and run?
Dimensions and pics would be helpful here.
