The Senior devs are there to help out new starters, especially those that have just started their career let alone starting a new job.
I respect they might be busy but two new starters who are at an equivalent experience level should be getting support. Reach out to them, find the one that has the best personal skills and lean on them. If they are really busy make sure you're making the most of their time.
* Take notes
* Ask good questions
* When they provide you information, ask for them to provide you a link to supporting documentation so you don't need to ask the same question twice
Even with all of this, you might not get the support you need. If that happens, it's not a reflection on you but a reflection of the organisation or it's current (or permanent) situation.
