Housing two females is fine and many breeders house their animals in groups. However I find that they do much better in their own enclosures. They eat more and are generally less stressed. When you house animals together there is competition for food, hiding spots, etc. If you do house them together keep a close eye on them. Make sure everyone maintains their weight and is eating fine. Any signs of problems or stress separate them asap.
