Recently got these guys but am unsure as to what type of tortoises they are.

Want to get the care right so need advice on temps etc asap.

Thanks!IMG_20201004_211648.jpgIMG_20201004_211719.jpg

This is the big one but they're both the same ones just smaller?

Those are both Hermans. The link given you in the above post is good, and we also have a care sheet for Hermanns pinned towards the top of the hermanns section.

They look like the previous owner kept them very dry. Soak in warm water daily

Have been so far, and spraying their shells with water in the morning too. They're really active and love soaking in the warm water
