Byblis ?

I found two of these guys growing in my 'hummer's hammerhead' I think they are byblis .. but I need YOU (yes you) to confirm

It is definitely a Drosera indica, I would agree with finlaysoniana on the basis that it and Serpens are the most commonly grown, however serpens has a petiole (which your plant does not), so is ruled out.

Though until it gets older it can be hard to correctly ID this complex as their are so many now (11 in Australia alone, with a few such as aquatica also lacking a petiole), however if you stick with finlaysoniana I doubt anyone would argue.

If you really want an ID you will have to wait till it is older and check the trichomes
 
My guess is D. indica.

Here are a couple photos that may be helpful for ID as your plant matures, the first is D. indica and the second is Byblis:
