Adopted these cuties from a friend
Is that your enclosure or your friends? Are you looking for any tips, or did you just want to show your new babies?
Cute, however they should not be housed together. Two different species housed together is a bad thing. Different requirements and different pathogens that could pass between the two that they may not be able to fight off

Hi it,s ok I,m going to seperate them, just wants to show them on here, I appreciate any advice from you all thanks.
They are little cuties, I must say...enjoy.
What cuties! Congrats on the new babies! That Leo is especially gorgeous!
That's wonderful that you are already planning to separate, and that you're open to advice. With that in mind, if you aren't already aware, there are MUCH better substrates to be had than hay, for both those species. Hay is a poor substrate for numerous reasons, but I won't get into that here. Both Leopard and Redfoot tortoises do very well on dirt/coir type mixes and/or cypress mulch.
