Do you think I should continue to keep both together? They spend a fair bit of time chasing and mounting each other. But they are not being aggressive towards each other.
As Lynn has said some females can be very dominant towards others, especially in a small space, if you can get them outside this summer in a large enclosure, so they have plenty of space, the chasing and mounting behaviour might stop, but if it doesn't you might need to separate them, for a while, and possibly re introduce them, and see if it happens again.
