Hi and welcome.
If they are Gopherus genus you'll find this caresheet useful -
If you post pics of their enclosures and the lamps you use you'll get good feedback to make sure they are as safe and happy as possible in their new homes.

Who doesn't love the names "Zippy & Scooter" for a couple of our little friends......beautiful......

WTTC!
You will like this place.
The talent level here is off the charts, pro stuff so you are in very good hands AND, no one here is trying to sell stuff, at least outside the "stuff selling place" LOL

And I have to say I am new to forums, actually this is my first. There is so much information here! I feel so much better knowing that I have been doing right in so many ways. I love the how everyone is so kind and caring. My daughter thinks I’m crazy talking to my babies, but I adore them and want to care for them properly. So thank you! Once I learn how, I will post a picture.

Thank so much much for this care sheet! I am planning on purchasing some of the pellets you suggested. This is my very first forum, once I learn how I will post a picture. Thanks again!

You're welcome!
I think someone else must have mentioned pellets, or the caresheet.
If you mean for food, they are OK now and again, but leafy greens are best.
Will they each have their own enclosure?

Welcome from the UK - this was the first forum I joined, and still is the only one - you will find people here really kind and helpful - which I understand is not the case in some other forums. And it is so interesting to learn about other peoples lives, and other kinds of tortoises.
OF course you talk to your babies - why not? I even sometimes read poetry to my 21 year old Hermann - I think he likes the sound of my voice, and the rhythm of it !
Best wishes from Angie.
