If one turtle begins biting at another turtle's neck, I'm almost positive it means it is getting ready to mate and its letting the other turtle know its only matter of time before they do mate.

I would advise you to keep them separated for at least 3 months, until the mating season is over. Unless you do want baby turtles. it is totally natural.
