Hatchling enclosure size

[spurtighted43]

I found a greek hatchling in my garden 1-2 months ago(They are native here) I have fed tortoises ago too. I decide to adopt this little guy. it's a big advantage for them to be native here
I feed him with wild weeds(mullberry leaves,bindweed,plantain, dandelion, thistle, mallow, hibiscus and lettuce) and he ate and well very, and prepared his enclosure. It's 50*50cm. Is it ok for a greek hatchling?

(He is 25 grams.)

Minimum size for a little hatching is 61x122cm. Once you put in the hides, some potted plants, food and water dishes, and some furniture, there is no room left to walk in a 50x50cm enclosure.

Also native tortoises should never be taken from the wild. You want one buy one and leave wild where they belong.
If you haven't had it very long then take it back where you found him and release him
