Hello Hickeytina,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. If we understand correctly, you would like to set up text message forwarding so that text messages can be sent and received on another device.


You can set up message forwarding from Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding. However, you would need to set that up for an iPad, iPod touch or Mac and would not be able to forward them to another iPhone automatically. You can select individual messages from your conversation history. Check out How to forward SMS/MMS text messages from your iPhone to your iPad, iPod touch or Mac for further guidance.


Have a great day!
