Some kittens do like to play rough. This may be welcomed behavior but watch for signs such as one kitten avoiding or hiding from the other, bullying behavior (ie one kitten consistently trying to get away but can't) or one kitten seeming isolated. If both kittens are interactive with each other and seem to enjoy/seek each other's company, then it's likely all play. If things do get too rough, put the aggressor in the carriage (which ever one that is). Give i about a 30 minute time out and then release it. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
