I have two leopard tortoises, they are both juvenile. I currently have then in my tortoise table. How do I clean the substrate and clean out their feces, expecially when I cannot see it. How often am i going to have to replace the dirt? Anything would helo

Just stir it up and smooth it out. If you can't see it, it won't be much of a problem. I don't ever change out substrate. ONce a tortoise is not being kept in that habitat any longer, I toss that substrate into my flower bed. Next time I use that container, I start with new substrate.
