Hi
I got 2 baby Hermann tortoises about 2 months ago, one of them hatched in July and on in August of 2018.
I built them an inclosure and I'm pretty happy how it turned out, the phone you see in the picture is a camera so I can make sure they are doing alright when I'm in school. If anyone has tips to improve my setup please do share them! Any tips really with baby tortoises are welcome. I love them tofu (the bigger tortoise) is super friendly and loves to be petted on his/her head. Kovu is a bit shyer but he/she is still very cute. I have them under a big 12 percent tl bulb and a separate heat bulb. The setup is 1,5 metres in length and 0,8 metres wide, I do plan on building a bigger one once they have grown but for the next few years, I think this will do fine. They seem to really enjoy their setup and are always sunbathing or exploring. The setup didn't break the bank I think I spent 130 dollars in total.
