YES... it sounds like breeding behavior to me. While some of the points made by others are valid,they are a bit presumtuous. True putting two animals together without a 90 day quarantine is not the best thing to do, but if contact was limmited then so will the chance of something being transmitted. Parasites are transmitted through feces and/or fluid exchange. Coppulation usually takes more than 10 seconds and if you were watching, there would be no mistake on whether or not the deed was done. As far as stress goes you are usually pretty safe with adults, it's the babies you need to worry about.
