Sadly not with only two in there. Tortoises should not be housed in pairs. One will not grow as well as the other and both will live under stress. You were told this already. Hopefully you will start to follow the help given you.
Also if that is not a closed chamber, hard to tell, high humidity enclosure they will quickly start to pyramid. Tom had left you threads to read to properly house them on your other thread. Maybe take some time and read it if you haven't or read it again if you had
Being in front of a window is not a good idea if that window has sun shining thru. You can't control the heat of the sun and uvb does not go thru the glass.
Before your tortoises pay with their health, make changes needed.

Please do refer back to your other thread where you were linked to the appropriate advice, these two cannot live together like this, the water dish is a hazard and you need to make sure it’s a closed chamber, if it’s open top, your humidity won’t stay where it needs to be and these guys will start to pyramid as wellington has said, please give the links a read!

If you need some visual examples on appropriate closed chamber set ups, please do feel free to check out this thread I made, I think you’ll find it helpful! It goes over the right kind of equipment, correct levels, appropriately maintaining humidity etc

Leopard/sulcata starter

Hello there! In this thread I’m going to include some information below on how I’d personally tackle an indoor starter set up for this guy until they’re bigger. Hopefully it helps give you some ideas! I know it looks a lot to go over, I like to make sure all bases are covered, I’m happy to...

Common keeping errors

Hello everyone! I’d been a long time lurker on this site long before joining just under a year ago now, over that time I’ve seen these husbandry issues come up time and time again, sometimes with dire consequences☹️ I thought this thread might serve as a good visual guide for these common...

Hey, this is all very important but also friendly advice ! Your darling little tortoises will suffer as it is now. Maybe you are happy, but they are most definitely not, and they can't tell you that, but they can and will show you sooner or later.

you’ve just been given advice to help your tortoises stay healthy and thrive, I’m not understanding how that’s rude?

Sadly your tortoises will pay for your ignorance! Trying to help your tortoises and you learn the right way is not rude, it's helping you to do the best for the tortoises you took in.
If you want to keep doing poorly for your tortoises and just get comments on how cute they are, FB will be good for you. They don't care if your tortoises are being raised in a way that will hurt them! We do care.

Btw, it is fun when your tortoises are being cared for properly and they are thriving and you get to watch them grow.
What's not fun, is a sick or dead tortoise or one that is stunted and not thriving or can't walk or has MBD, because the owner didn't want to listen to the people that have done it much longer and have seen the results of poor care! That's really not fun!!!

They way we type may come off very frank sometimes, but it’s coming from a place of kindness that genuinely cares for the wellbeing of the tortoises
