Cherryhead advice

[coding_duchess]

Good afternoon. I am looking to get a cherryhead hatchling and cannot decide between a newly hatched one - 1-2 months old vs a well-established hatchling of about 5 months. Which one should I get?

Also about the enclosure, what is a good size for a hatchling? Also please recommend humidifier for reptiles

No humidifier for tortoises. They need a closed chamber which will provide the humidity needed if done right without added humidifier which can be dangerous.
Either age is fine, as long as you get it from a breeder that starts them out right.
A 3 or 4 by 6 should last until it can live outside during warm weather.
