Hello. I have over 25 years experience breeding and raising Hermann’s tortoises - and I offer free advice for the rest of your tortoises life. I know how to raise healthy tortoises with smooth shell growth.
The babies / youngsters for sale are Eastern Hermanns (Testudo hermanni boettgeri) - hatched in July and August of 2025.
If you would like any more photos or information just let me know.
These babies have had a perfect star to life with a varied weed diet and the correct humidity and UVB lighting.
An overview of what you need:
Enclosure: A large vivarium or a large deep opaque plastic tub with a lid (some ventilation holes in lid). Tortoise tables are okay, but it is difficult to a good amount of humidity in them - so you would need to create a roof of some type for it. Vivariums are much better than tortoise tables, as it is much easier to create the correct habitat.
Substrate: Top soil and coconut coir mix - I use a 30 / 70 mix. Kept moist at all times.
Humidity: 80 - 85 percent is ideal
Cork bark tunnels (they like to sleep under these)
Spray bottle for spraying enclosure each day.
Shallow water dish.
Some piles of moss can be great for burying into and for humidity.
Lighting: Arcadia UVB 12 percent strip bulb. In smaller enclosures and vivariums you can use a 12 percent UVB strip bulb (Arcadia is best) with a ceramic heat source (I would go for a 50 watt ceramic heater - do not go higher than 50 watts in a vivarium) … or you can you used heat mats instead of the ceramic heater.
Food: Many different types of weeds and flowers - such as mallow, campanula, dandelion, clover, plantain, cats ears weed, galium aparine, vetch, sedums etc etc. I give mine the occasional small amount of soaked Nutrazu (Mazuri) pellets once a week. Very occasional fruit (berries). Coz lettuce, romaine lettuce and lambs lettuce can also be offered from time to time.
