I don't have any personal experience with your situation, however, I think things in your favor are they are all females, and they were former cage mates.
It could be she remembers their scents, or it could be she is just lonely.
If re-introductions go amazing, I would say she remembers. Everyone a happy reunion

If you want to lay a fresh blanket down inside, and a few quick swipes of vinegar water on the walls, it will help neutralize.

Cool! Sometimes mine make noises if the other one doesn't announce herself. It's kind of a spit-crab-pfft sound. Mine have also slapped at each other. They just get startled.

OMG so I finally got a good look at Oatsy, she's warming up very very slowly but still bitey... Very very bitey. I don't think her nails have ever been trimmed they're so long. I need to make an appointment with my vet asap and have her gassed and trimmed I don't feel comfortable doing it myself yet. This is going to be a long journey... OH but a happy note, when they were done playing this AM Marina crawled into the pouch with her which was fine until I tried putting them away then she crawled right back out hehe.

Continue with pouch swapping, also use small fleece "blankies". I cut special ones as rectangles to prepare my gliders for intros. I place one rectangle fleece in each pouch, for me it was one in my girl's (2 girls) pouch and one in my boy's pouch for a couple of nights. Then I took each rectangle fleece from their pouches and laid them one on top of the other and cut them in half. So I had on square portion from each pouch together to place in the pouches. One set went in my girl's pouch and the other set in my boy's pouch. The fleece squares mingled all three of their scents together while they were in their pouch and hopefully transferred the mingled scent on each other. Anyway, after doing more scent swapping and mingling/transfer, try the bathtub method again, but have them in their own pouches with mingled-scented blankie and a neutral pouch in between their two pouches. Also, I did double bonding pouching too. I had Ollie in one bonding pouch and Lulu (RIP) & Skadoosh in another. I wore them both layered side by side (over-lapping), after they were calmed down, I turned the screen windows to face each other and wore them like that for a while. I had a couple of singled layered fleece bonding pouches that I got from EN. They came in handy, though I don't regularly use them, I have better bonding pouches if I carry my gliders with me out anywhere.

That sounds like successful intro. They should be fine, but recommended the first day to keep them on or be near them, also listen out after they are up, especially with feeding. After that, just your regular attention should be enough, unless you hear or see anything wrong.
