PLEASE HELP hello I have a baby Greek tortoise who’s a male. I really want to have two baby Greeks. If I purchase a baby male Greek tortoise and raise them up together would the males fight when older or would they be friends or family since they would be grown up in the same enclosure. Please let me know your thoughts and experiences.

Tortoises should never be kept in pairs. The sexes don't matter.

If you want a second tortoise, set up a second enclosure and house them separately.

Besides what has been said above, it isn't possible to know the sex of BABY tortoises.

Have a look at all the threads where members have found out the hard way and one of their torts has ended up ill, injured or dead.
